In this specific case, your tool requires a web browser (though I'm assuming that there is a non-web browser form of what is being sold here). Maybe you are in a situation where you only have terminal access to the machine.

Maybe you are on your phone just browsing github looking for a library to use

I'm sure people can continue to imagine more examples. It is entirely possible that we have different experiences of projects and teams.
