This. Even the command-line is extremely simple and convenient once you are familiar with it.
It's so much more complex and frustrating to try and come up with words to explain to someone the steps to do anything on a Windows GUI... browsing through menus clicking this thing here, right-clicking here that, going through tabs, dragging this to there... go to "this" -> "that" -> "whatever"... and then to only realize you misremembered the exact location and have to look it up to make sure.
Or maybe they changed the location slightly in the last Windows update because "reasons". More than once I've been searching how to do something on Windows 10 and found outdated instructions with setting panels that don't exist anymore.
