Why doesn't Terminal.app qualify? I used to use iTerm 2 because I liked its pane management, but after switching to using tmux several years ago, I've solely used Terminal.app + tmux without any issues in my workflow. What am I missing out on?

The latency of iTerm has traditionally been much worse than Terminal.app. It got a bit better with GPU rendering, but it still trails behind Terminal.app quite a bit.

I tried iTerm for a while because Terminal.app does not support true color. But the difference in latency is definitely noticeable to me.
One of my colleagues at my first job didn’t even have a direct connection to the mainframe when he started. He used to write his code on paper, get a typist to then enter that into the mainframe and he would get the output a day or two later. Which meant he had to put a lot more care into checking for syntax errors before handing the code off to be entered and compiled.
