Still miss the old Cisco CLI from back in 2006

I spent 8 years working with Catalyst 3750s before my company moved to Meraki last fall. The cloud dashboard is fine for monitoring but I swear I could troubleshoot a VLAN mismatch in half the time with show commands. Maybe it's just me but having to click through 4 menus to find a spanning-tree issue feels like a step backward. Anyone else stuck between the old CLI speed and the new fancy GUI?

Heard a network engineer say the same thing at a user group meetup last month.

Four menus just to check spanning-tree? That's insane, I'd lose my mind in a week.
