It's a good point - I wonder if the actual user really sees an old-looking GUI screen as worse than an arcane terminal configuration.

At least people don’t have much issues being told syntax for sendmail. cf and apache.conf and ~/.xinitrc are completely different from one another.
an arcane terminal configuration at least opens up the possibility of 3rd party settings GUI's to "unlock the hidden potential of your operating system" for the user who wants to tinker but with the safety rails still attached.
Most of the Windows stuff can be automated via WMI.
