If you are already going that far, why not just switch to a tiling window manager?

They are not mutually exclusive. I use xmonad, tmux, and vim together. Tmux adds some niceties on top of xmonad like shared keybinds with vim making moving across vim panes and terminals seamless. Also, I can jump on my macbook and login to my desktop using mosh and re-attach to the tmux session and continue working where I left off.

I do, but...

If I'm on my laptop, then switch to my desktop, a twm doesn't save my sessions. Tmux on a remote machine does.
