Because Mitchell doesn't use terminal search, and neither do most of the maintainers.

How is this even possible? Just pipe result from a command into a file and open in vim and search it that way? Perhaps use Neovim's built in terminal where you can search at will? I find it hard to believe that "I don't ever search" is a thing.
He probably uses tmux which has features for all of those things, why should the terminal re-implement them?

He gave an interview on YouTube, which contradicts this.
Well, I am perplexed then.
It does kinda sound like he's trying to reinvent X11.
I don't think I've ever intentionally used the scroll back search in iterm2 and deliberately disabled the shortcut for it because I kept triggering it by accident. I don't understand wanting or needing it, at all.
