Sure, but you're entirely missing the point. Question is, is it necessary for programming? I repeat, to be entirely clear, is it necessary? Not useful, but necessary for a beginner to touch the command line?

Why, yes?

Do you understand that you're asking if a beginner needs to run or pass a setting or even automate any operation that's relevant to programming?

I repeat, a CLI is an interface. It's an interface to perform an action and/or pass a setting. That's it. What warrants this irrational opposition to an interface?

What warrants this fanatical devotion to command line iterfaces while people have been happily coding without them for decades?
