easily falsifiable bullshit found to be false.
I have to say though, the responder to the first comment did a bad job at conveying what exactly refterm is... Apparently people falsely think that refterm is a terminal emulator and use it interchangeably with terminal and terminal renderer, while it isn't.
If you were to open refterm once, you'd see a text that explicitly states "DO NOT USE IT AS A TERMNIAL EMULATOR", or something like that (can't open it now to copy exact).
Nobody said he made a fully functional better terminal, just that the terminal rendering was better and functional. Doing everything needed for a fully functional terminal is a lot of work, but doing everything needed for terminal rendering isn't all that much work.
