Yeah, I would guess that the parent commenter has a heavily graphical workflow based out of a big honking IDE like IntelliJ. For people doing development in a console anyway, it would take more time to start a git GUI and wait for it to launch than to be done committing and pushing from the CLI.

The counter argument is that if you make an error using the CLI, you end up spending more time fixing it than if you just had the GUI open and watching your repo already, and simply switch to it when you need to commit/push.
