The default vim config is pretty barebones.

Actually, one of the main goals of Neovim[1] is to provide better defaults[2], such has syntax highlighting.

I'm actually using it currently and I really enjoy the built-in terminal. It makes my workflow much better.

Be aware that some plugins might have some bugs. I also got segfaults when using multiple terminals (although that's quite rare).

Interesting. I tried out the built-in terminal and found that I couldn't navigate around panes as quickly as if I just used tmux instead. Are you using the default mappings, or have you made them easier to use somehow?
