> Would you argue this is somehow relinquishing control? I like it, since it's very quick and cheap, I don't mind it running more often than I use it, because it saves me the keyboard clicks to explicitly ask for completion.

I can't answer for others, but personally I don't like the zsh-like way to "show the possible completions in dark grey after the cursor" because it disrupts my thoughts.

It's pull vs push: whether on the commandline or using an AI, I want the results only when I feel I need them - not before.

If they are pushed into me (like the mailbox count, or other irrelevant parameters), they are distracting and interrupting my thoughts.

I love optimization and saving a few clicks, but here the potential for distraction during an activity that requires intense concetration would be much worse.

I don't mind a single completion so much, as long as there's a reasonable degree of precision there. But otherwise I agree with you. I feel like they're only useful if you start typing without knowing what you want to do or how to do it, but if that is the case I know that is the case. Having a keypress to turn on that behavior temporarily just for that might not be so bad.
