Plus there's no reason why most GUI's can't adopt a keyboard-only workflow. It's easy to implement. The inverse is not true.

There has to be a reason when 99% of GUI apps don't support it.

There are ways to do it in most GUI applications. On Windows, pressing Alt will sometimes show you the combination to activate certain parts of the UI (keyboard accelerators). It's not obvious anymore because people don't focus on accessibility. Sadly, it's not common practice to ensure a good workflow, because it's assumed that they will use a mouse. Or people keep re-inventing TUI every time they think they want a terminal-friendly utility.
