Lucky you, glad you could have 3.x everywhere! I could be wrong as it may just be my experience, but the command line for custom things is necessary as the GUI doesn't show everything. I started with GUI and moved a lot to CLI as it seems easier/faster. Hopefully it's simply a personal preference!
There are places like wireless where the GUI is almost required as the CLI is difficult to navigate and may not even have some values.
