Good points about advantages of TUI. I think the keyboard focus and speed is what often sells me on them. There's no reason a good GUI couldn't have those but the moment your user has access to mouse you get lazy on the keyboard part and much was said already about big GUI frameworks/ecosystems and their impact on performance.
