There's a lot to discuss here, a very interesting comment. I wouldn't want to talk too much publicly about certain technical elements, and because I don't want to encourage solutions decided by LLMs, however the Skia/Cairo-GL angle is interesting but would be a heavy dependency and does not help Linux, where the same gfxterm.c policy drives the OpenGL backend. The vtable abstraction was specifically designed so the rendering logic is written once and the platform just supplies the draw primitives.
