The locations and names of things in those GUI interfaces tend to change (a lot) in the Windows World, whereas there tends to be less fundamental change (although some for some distros) in the Linux/BSD world between releases. I'm not suggesting that a GUI is better than command line or vice versa (different strokes for different folks and all that) but that having less change for critical files has saved me a lot by way of time.
