It is an application developer choice which interaction style to afford. It all depends on targeted audience.
Some applications are self-contained and expose no user interface at all. File watchers are an example.
Some use API level interfaces like grpc and REST APIS. Paypal is an example.
Some only provide plugin level functionality. Text editors are an example.
Some expose SDKs. Windows APIs is a great example. Cryptography API is example.
Now we take all of the above, take a subset of that and build cli application. Example is cli utilities for database management like psql.
Then we invent a whole new set of cli apps that’s independent of above. Example is text processing utilities like tail.
So, original statement is indication of complete lack of understanding of subject space.
