You Can’t Do Data Science in a GUI

Those requirements will tend to drive you towards a CLI solution as the easiest/best available, but if you could get those requirements satisfied in any other programmatic way, then I think you'd probably be okay.

Theoretically you can do these some other way. In practice, the CLI is the only way that's remained. The thing with the CLI is it is quite easy to a new component to it whereas someone creating a little app for a little task as a GUI tends to create a "cul-de-sac", stovepipe, a program with not relation to any other program.

So third approach would be great but it doesn't seem to be getting any closer.

Programs like Nuke, Houdini and Touch Designer have been doing this for years specific to graphics - this is trying to be more generalized:

SikuliX is halfway between CLI and GUI: https://avleonov.com/2017/02/13/sikulix-the-last-chance-for-...
