To be completely fair to both sides though, the ability to tweak MacOS from terminal has always felt like it was opposed by Apple. They don't seem to support it officially in any capacity, and in many respects, actively fight it (i.e. changing the preference keys in every single release of MacOS, for literally no reason).

You can do some things to and with MacOS from CLI. Honestly though, it's all stuff I wouldn't miss awfully.
