GUIs are great for beginners. I usually start with a GUI myself when I enter completely new territory. Then I "graduate" to the command line when I want advanced features not provided by the GUI, or when I want to include its features in a script as part of a larger automation tool.

GUIs are also much more "noob friendly", and will make de-bricking a lot less intimidating, and could have prevented some people from using fastboot to "erase all" requiring that they learn how to use the serial port.

It is especially nice that it is "cross-platform" (but the non-native GUI widgets take a bit of getting used to for windows users).
