Searching in Google „TUI abbreviation“ gives me a list with Touch User Interface at the top followed by Terminal user Interface , then Telephone User Interface.

Yes, there is a more established term for TUI, yet it’s not what you thought it is. TUI for terminal user interface is not so new and not so obscure as you make it sound (especially in the data science, ipython, Julia, etc. Community).

I think as it‘s an expert Interface the abbreviation is not such a big problem. Yet, I agree it‘s always good to give the full term before using an abbreviation.
