This is the real, tangible cost of not having that baseline. It's not about being elitist, it's about not burning hours because someone's plugin is broken and they can't even describe the problem in git's own terms. The CLI is the common API.
Lazygit's smart because it's just a TUI, it runs in the same environment. It's the difference between using AWS Cost Explorer's web UI versus running a `aws ce get-cost-and-usage` query in your terminal. One might give you a quick view, but the other is something you can script, version, and run from anywhere.
