Are servers / daemons not a common usecase? Most, if not all, of the apps I write on a daily basis do not have GUI.

Is this on a UNIX? If so, yes, it's common to write to stdout/stderr there. Not in Windows, though - anything which is long-running tends to be a Windows Service and there's no point writing to System.Console from there because no-one will see it!
I haven't done much .NET on UNIX but if I was doing so, I'd probably want something a bit more UNIX-friendly than System.Console, though I know it does have the ability to deal with different streams.
