Spot on. Use the right tool for the right job. Eg, if you want to copy a bunch of files whose names can be conveniently expressed using a "wild card", a command line is the best way to do it. If you want to visually select a group of files whose names bear no common relationship, a GUI is a more efficient way to do it. It's useful to know how to do tasks both ways.
