My thoughts exactly. I stopped using GNOME or any desktop environment

What's good enough for you is not necessarily good enough for everyone else.
I likewise am very comfortable in a Terminal, however, many aren't.
Furthermore, there are nowadays lots of other bits and pieces that are very
useful in a session (a dbus daemon, a GPG and SSH keyrings, a power manager
and/or screensaver, network manager applets, file sync tools, disk mount
managers, etc.); you may not need these, or may be happy to effectively
assemble a form of a desktop environment from scratch, but some people are
happy to delegate that job to others.
(I am currently shopping for a desktop session manager)
