In some cases yes. In this case, in my opinion it can be strictly wrong.
The GPU requirements of a terminal are _minuscule_ even under heavy load. We're not building AAA games here, we're building a thing that draws a text grid. There is no integrated GPU on the planet that wouldn't be able to keep a terminal going at an associated monitor's refresh rate.
From a technical standpoint, there is zero downside whatsoever to always using the integrated GPU (the stance Ghostty takes) and plenty of upside.
