Why no GUI or menu system?

[SegaLover2020]

Just curious why supermodel3 has never had an official graphics user interface in all these years.
Basically every emulator under the sun, even in alpha or beta, has at least a window environment for settings, launching games etc. The way I see it, the devs wanted to go the "experts only" route making the emu more complicated to weed out less experienced users. But it makes it ugly to see and a pain to use, unless of course you download one of the unofficial gui's. Quite strange, anyway...

I think the answer is probably time. I'd rather spend time working on actual emulation than working on GUI stuff.
And I don't have any experience in writing cross platforms GUI stuff.
I think an official GUI loader tool would have gone a long way. That said people are now writing some great alternative ones.
