None of the tools on display here are composable either, in fact almost all modern TUIs are literally indistinguishable from GUIs, using the same widgets and user paradigms you'd find in a desktop app, but reimplemented on top a text rendering engine, they're not CLI tools.
It's basically the same thing we did on the web where webapps sort of pretend that they're not sitting on a text protocol but at least there it's out of necessity. On top of a functioning graphic stack there's no point for TUIs to exist.
