cp is faster than drag-and-drop, especially when operating on multiple files (i.e. cp myphotos/2022-11-* someplace/)... vs drag and drop, where you need to open both locations in windows, select the files in one, and drag it to the other. Then probably close one of the windows.
Command-line is also discoverable, just not by the 'click on this' mentality, you have to be more curious. Which might be the better way to learn.
You might be right about higher density of information, but do you get to choose the information? vs i.e.
ls, ls --color, ls -lht, ... How quickly can you change between different representations? i.e. find big directories by du -h | sort -h
Changes can be seen instantly in the CLI, I don't understand what you meant by this.
The use of a keyboard when it is natural.

With the added advantage that all of the above, because it is text-based, is:
recordable,
repeatable,
searchable,
scriptable.
