It's great that you (and many others) find it useful, but I genuinely have no idea what this is about. I switch my iTerm from my 13" MBP, 32" monitor, and iPad all the time, and I don't need any config to make it work. Maybe I just don't care enough about this stuff but I don't see what I would even configure this way.
Anyway, this is the reason I love the new wave of terminals, they bring new stuff on the table and anyone can find one they love. I just installed Ghostty and it works as I expect out of the box, with even less config (0) than I have on iTerm. And it's fast. Now I just hope they'll add a config UI some day (one of the reasons I prefer static config files: you can't really get a UI with a programming language) and I'll be in terminal heaven

If you don't care about this stuff you'll just as easily configure in a static key=value table whatever you like, lua doesn't limit you here. It's benefits are all optional
