Yeah but if you're gonna learn this trade, you kinda gotta learn these things eventually, so why settle for a pacifier indefinitely?

I should have been more explicit. I'm wishing for a less discontinuous shell-learning-path, meaning to say that you'd stick with Go Terminal_ until you found you wanted something that zsh or tmux or whatever offered you.

Everything I've learned in programming I've learned that way: do something the repetitive way until I notice it, then research or do something better.
