but like... none of this makes the terminal more powerful.

something like the Arcan lash/cat9 shell is a massive leap forward in terminal technology that may potentially completely change how we use it. it does this by understanding what makes the terminal productive: pipelining, batch processing and scripting.

meanwhile this is just... a skin.
