xterm is one of the few terminals that supports titeInhibit functionality to disable the alternate screen at the terminal level. Yes, you can disable it through termcap hacks and application configurations, but it's nice to just set it in one place and have it apply to all the machines I ssh to, etc...
I understand the idea behind the alternate screen, but it really annoys me to have something on the screen (like a man page or editor session) and then have it gone while I'm trying to do my next thing (like type a command based on a man page).
But, I'm addicted to wezterm's keyboard-driven copy&paste and tmux+mosh-like functionality.
