All the non-UNIX platforms eventually had to come up with POSIX support, because apparently people cannot stop to see UNIX on everything that has a CPU, other platforms be dammed, they better come up with POSIX support, including terminal escape codes. The only reason to use PUTTY on Windows was and is, UNIX software running under mingw/cygwin. Same with Windows Terminal, and naturally Microsoft <3 Linux with WSL, again UNIX like software.

I made reference to stuff past your first line. Maybe you missed it because you didn’t read the entirety of my comment ;)

Anyway, you’re now just repeating exactly the sentiment I made that we were originally arguing against.
