    The point of a terminal like this isn’t necessarily to have more features. I have the tabs turned off (I also just use tmux). The point is to render smoothly and look/feel nice.

    Some people would rather spend a lot of money on a nice pen. It still is just a pen that writes. No additional features over a 25 cent Bic pen. But the smoothness of the writing, the hand feel, consistency of line thickness, etc… to some people that matters. No extra features, it just looks and feels a bit better… But if all you are doing is writing a grocery list, you may not care. And if you don’t care, you aren’t wrong. This just doesn’t apply to you. If you don’t have a reason, you don’t need to find one. It’s just not applicable.

    But some people do care. They do have a reason. And they are also not wrong to care. Their reasons just may not apply to you because you have different workloads or priorities (or maybe they do, and you just haven’t realized that it’s a thing you care about)
