See my other comment above. I'm quite comfortable using a terminal, but for the purposes of tweaking system files in their POSIX location. I don't want temp files or symlinks or sandboxed/containerised packages. I want binaries, I wanna compile software from source. Immutable distros make this quite difficult. The file system is setup differently (on purpose of course).
I guess it's less a criticism than it is a preference.
