Ok, quick vote time. TUI stands for:
"Text User Interface"
"Terminal User Interface"

(my vote is for the first, and I believe Eli's is to)

I really don't have a strong opinion at all, but I would vote for
option 2 - the regular cli is also a text user interface, and the tui
outputs escape codes which don't seem to me like text but do seem to
me like a terminal-ish thing.

The CLI interface also outputs terminal commands, so this aspect
doesn't really differentiate between the two.
To me, TUI sounds like GUI, but with G(raphics) replaced by T(ext).
While the CLI is also ``a user interface'', it is more common to call
it ``command-line interface'', which we already do.

I vote for "Text User Interface". It seems more appropriate.
