the shell is the UNIX CLI the only interaction he will have with UNIX is through the shell the differences are things that as a simple user he wont encounter, they all revolve more around admin stuff and UNIX internals
cd, ls grep, diff, cat, pipes, redirects, and basic interaction via the shell all works the same...yer overcomplicating it.
Guy just needs to take an intro UNIX class for users and he will know all he needs to know or I could teach him in about a day
