Please explain then.

You can do most things on Windows through command line, yet almost nobody is recommending those for fixes.

If what you say is true, we would have the same issue on Windows as we have on Linux.

My explanation is that the average Linux user is overestimating the capabilities of the average user. They think they can handle commands, which they obviously can't. Which causes Linux to look user-unfriendly, both as an OS and as a Community.
