In a sense you are correct. But you miss one big point. If you program for
a GUI (be it Qube or Windows) you get a lot of things for free since you
don't need to recreate things as buttons, menues etc. Still, I think Qube
should have been released after more programs were made for it, that way
any problems with the design behind the interface could have been easily
found and changed before "the public" got a look at it, and before people
started making programs for it (not that I've heard of anyone making any
programs for it).
