Well, what follows seems typical enough to be of possible interest.
I've been around long enough to know only too well that the CLI is
preferable when feasible. The problem is remembering the commands, to the
point where your fingers know them. I began with a prodigious memory, and
ran it flat out for decades; so now in old age it's way full.
But visual spatial memory, fortunately, seems to occupy a
different register. It's slower and less sharp. To answer what I has
clicked on, I was not able to rattle off a list, but had to go back and
reconstruct it -- including recovering a couple times from errors. But I
got there. The first false fork with the CLI'd've lost me.
