The rational for removing cassandra-cli is mainly that maintaining 2 fully
featured command line interface is a waste of the project resources in the
long
run. It's just a tool using the thrift interface however and you'll still be
able to adjust metadata through the thrift interface as before. As Patricia
mentioned, there is even some existing interactive options like pycassaShell
in the community.
It's also wasteful for the community to maintain multiple post 3.0 forks
for cassandra-cli so they can continue using Cassandra. It would be
more efficient if they cool pool their resources in a central place,
like a code repo at Apache.
