I hear that false dichotomy so many time that I lost count.
That's is an idiotic mindset. You can have a gui that is also
manipulable all via keyboard in an efficient manner.
gnome-do is a good example of this:

Because of that mindset, we are in 2014 and all terminal emulator

when it doesn't, and it is in D :) ).
