On servers, an UI is just a waste of resources, and doesn't allow you to configure the server automatically (with tools such as ansible).

I can understand why they do it. But my point is about how hard it is to transition from Windows to Linux.

The default for windows servers is also gui-less install. You have to specifically select the gui when installing.

So I guess you are talking about transitioning from Windows client to Linux server.
