- it's super easy to use the output of one program as the input of another, and to integrate it in bigger scripts.
- it's much more discoverable. when Mac users tell me they discovered tricks like holding right click at the screen corner or whatever, I'm telling them about `--help`.
- it prevents loosing context - I'm not switching windows all the time
- it always works. usually the same. and everywhere: on my laptop, on my server, on my phone.
These are just some reasons why I love it, but I'm sure there are others. and btw if you're really into search, sort, group filtering etc - maybe you should check out nushell.
