It may be easier to protect a keyboard from soil than a mouse. I’ve seen over-the-counter plastic membranes to keep keyboards from getting gunked up, for example. There may be no good surface for a mouse to operate on, and a touch screen may be too expensive to install and/or program. These are situations where a keyboard interface may be more cost effective than a graphical input interface.
A CLI is just one form of keyboard input interface, though. Keyboard menu systems were much more common than CLIs, back when systems that supported GUIs required kilowatts and megabucks.
