Conversly, I see nothing a TUI editor can do better than a GUI, including use of the keyboard

Yea I think I agree with you there, at least theoretically. In practice I've found that it's easier to use a TUI editor over SSH, and they require less resources, but that usually isn't noticeable on my PC. TUI editors can also run inside tmux, which is very nice if you are a tmux user.
