This will be for a physically small i5 laptop for various programming fun. The candidate linux should be easy to install, and provide a large selection of CLI programs.

Arch or derivatives (Manjaro, EndeavourOS) might be up your alley. They may not provide a ton of CLI stuff right out of the gate but there's lots of funky stuff in the AUR. As far as install goes it's not as difficult as memes portray and there are scripts that make it simple.
