I use the terminal for most things which are not web browsing hence for me it makes sense to prefer TUIs for "lightweight" GUI needs.

I love how I have to configure font size and family only once in the terminal emulator and not for each program/GUI toolkit again.

Of course, there is no way to replace graphical-heavy programs (GIMP, QGIS etc.) with TUIs.
