Would you care to substantiate your accusations? What tools do you think are superior to approaches that let you control what happens, and do not require you to push all operations through a slow, RSI inducing, non-automatizable GUI?

You absolutely can automate the GUI. People make very good money doing exactly that. The key difference is that the barrier to doing that automation is higher than automating a CLI.

Ummm... No. Thanks, but no thanks. And I'm not interested in registry cleaners, either.
