Don't focus in the mechanism. People aren't defending the mechanism. They are defending the benefit, which is currently a side effect of the mechanism: feature invariance with respect to render target, whether GUI or terminal. My own use is about 50:50 of each. Only a few things don't work the same way in the terminal and that's extremely valuable.
