Most terminals do behave like this, or am I missing something? Sure it has some nice extras like help messages and icons but those aren't that important, right? Even super niche shells like xonsh [1] has visual autocomplete [2]

There was this rather janky IDE for Powershell, way before VSCode even existed, called Powershell ISE, that had very similarly looking autocomplete behavior in it's terminal window.

It's still around, I just used it today. I rarely use Powershell but when I do it helps (somewhat) to use this vs straight command line. I want to like Powershell but there is so much about it that just feels off as a long time bash script writer. I am admittedly a novice at Powershell though, so maybe it is just me.

Why does this comment not seem legit... This seems like a bot. There is no way Apple or Microsoft would pick this up.
