Because it has almost no overhead, and has the most flexibility. Can the 3 year old (assuming they understood the process) select items from one ile based on selection Then pull items from another file using a related ID and save that list. Perform that again on two other files and save that list. Merge those two, and then push that list into an application that emails a file The above would take 2-3 min to do with telnet. IT would take significantly longer to do with a GUI front end. telnet is excellent for administration and development. Once you know what you ant, then you an use the GUI to setup a nice interface for those that want to point and lick. Why is DOS still on Windows? Because there are some things you just can't do asily with windows, r without writing/buying an application.

In today's world a 3 year old can use an iPad to access a Universe or nidata database application. We sell an Alpaca herd management that runs n the iPad and our granddaughter used the application "Who's your daddy?" o find out who the alpaca's daddy is. Sorry, another digression.
