This was my initial reaction as well, but after some more consideration, I concluded:

1. This isn't for me

2. But some users have completely different expectations/desires

3. There's a place for terminals with features like this alongside standard terminals that remain simple. vi vs. vim vs. neovim come to mind here

3. I could see this being valuable for content creation that features a terminal, where communicating what is happening is more important than the local experience I'd otherwise expect to have while doing daily work

5. This would be even more valuable for narrative/story telling where the goal is to show something that's real while trying to appeal to a broad audience

Not my cup of tea, for the most part, but I can see a place for it.
