Also, writing a GUI wrapper for a terminal-only program is much easier than writing a terminal wrapper for a GUI-only program.

Anyone worth any kind of respect writes the API for an application/CTA first and then uses the same API to power the GUI so it can also be used as a CLI tool.

Everyone is happy, no elitism or wars.

What do you mean by "CTA"? How don't see how "Call to Action" is relevant in this context, seeing how it's more of a UX design concern than a technical thing. Or does it have some other meaning that does not appear in Google's first page of results and that ChatGPT is not aware of, and yet "Anyone worth any kind of respect" already implements?
