> The better terms won out...

I actually don't think they won out. Mindshare maybe, but I use kill and yank on macOS all the time. In fact, since they are enabled by default, I use Emacs keybindings all the time and everywhere on my Mac. Even the password entry screen in macos has Emacs keybindings.

I always thought that Apple saw the superiority in these bindings that they have them included by default.
