OK, if your talking homebrew on Mac, then your not just doing “basic” things. yes, for power users on Linux, we need to use the CLI. For actual basic things (browsing, word processing, consuming media) you absolutely don’t need to touch it at all on many “noon” distros.

So claiming that there’s a steep learning curve for basic things is going to turn off new users, who would be perfectly fine never looking at a terminal to do what they need
