Text interfaces can offer precision and breadth of tooling that guis don't.

I do a fair amount of CAD so I'll use that example. Nobody who uses CAD professionally is clicking all the little buttons for tools. They're using commands, shortcuts, scripts, etc.

A GUI is slow and clunky. A textual interface, once learned, has way more degrees of freedom.
