> In fact I’d love to pit a CLI veteran against a UI veteran in a contrived gauntlet of git challenges and see who reaches the finish line first. You could also determine the speed of light for each approach i.e. the minimum number of keypresses required to perform the action and then see which approach wins. Even if you had a thousand aliases, I still think a keyboard-centric UI (with good git API coverage) would win.
If they're faster than CLI it's because they are also CLI experts who have an ideological mission. Nobody cares about this situation. Overall the CLI is still faster in the majority of cases at most workplaces.
