I do not see how adding "write" changes anything. When a free software  
program does not have a CLI, it is not because its author wants to control  
you. It is just because nobody worked on it. And anybody is free to work on  
it or pay somebody to work on it. Instead you want to force the author to  
write a CLI (what is not even always possible: like drawing on GIMP).

The same holds for any feature. A free software program not having a GUI  
(most users actually prefer GUIs), not being accessible, not being translated  
to your language, not being stable, not being secure, etc. is a not a program  
that denies your freedoms. It is an imperfect program.
