I don't know - I like having the control master around for when I've done something like startup an interactive process, then realize that I also want to pop onto the machine to look in some file. I don't always start screen when I login somewhere, and I don't particularly like screen well enough to make it my default first action when I log in somewhere. I also tend to prefer to be able to see all my logins simultaneously, rather than having them be screen windowed or tabbed. I thought it was a nice overview of some things I use a lot (control master, and nicknames in .config) and included some things I didn't know, like the control persistence and some of the nickname wildcarding. It shouldn't be dismissed just because it isn't about screen/tmux.
