Sorry but Windows Terminal is a terrible example of this. It does way, way more than cmd.exe.

They might be referencing the “controversy” around it, where a prominent developer claimed and later proved that the terminal’s render speed is simply orders of magnitude slower than it could be.

It later turned out to be due to some Unicode handling in-built into a windows api they were using, while the developer’s version also not completely feature-complete. But both sides were sort of right.
