Your counterargument is a straw-man. If you wanted to use tmux, you'd set your own keys and spend a few minutes googling to fix the scrollback and colors. Tmux offers functionality that goes above and beyond the multiplexing built into most emulators. Longtime users of tmux (like myself) find it elegant and speedy; not clunky. I am also a linux user, but I can use an emulator with a much smaller footprint than yours and enjoy greater flexibility and control than you do.
