No matter how much you like typing everything in a terminal, it is the least efficient environment for file system navigation. It lists file systems in 1-D where you...have....to...type...out...paths and cache the organization in your own memory. The poor UX of the terminal leads to lot of bad habits, like shortening names to acronyms, reducing hierarchy for typing convenience, and dumping files an unorganized mess (looking at you usr/local/bin). GUI file navigation is 2-D or even 3-D organizations of files that together with spotlight indexing I know I outrun terminal navigators by 10X in a real-world file system.
