I agree with most of what you said, except for the Windows examples. The pages that you linked begin with three-line TL;DRs that are enough for any barely-competent user to find and modify the necessary settings. While the full instructions may be tortuously detailed, are they actually hard to understand?

And sure, those Windows pages don't advance the user's knowledge in any meaningful way, but neither does blindly copying and pasting a line of shell commands.

By the way, while I appreciate that we're talking about if and how CLI is superior to GUI, and not Linux versus Windows...

Where-as Linux users can easily share commands and fixes or tests over a simple irc chat, because the command line reaches the whole system.

... both of those tasks can be done via CLI in Windows, too. I am very happy that I switched to Linux, but there's no reason to misrepresent the other guys.
