so, it's convenience. fair enough. i'm just trying to make sense of why it is so popular on hn. i often see stuff rated to mount everest here and i just don't get it. and then i'm wondering is it me? or is it them? am i one of those weak engineers who just don't know what's going on? that's all.

Since you asked, your point above effectively says "why don't you just work around your terminal emulator being slow by making more work for yourself?" That's not a compelling argument.

not really - the use case mentioned where you suffer from a slow terminal is a code smell as far as i am concerned
