> JS doesn't have a problem displaying json as json...

You know what else doesn't have a problem doing this? Literally any other programming language or tool that I've ever used to look at/edit Json.

> Hyperterm, it does things no other shell can do...display webpages on link clicks moving up git logs with my trackpad, adding tabs with a plugin that contains a few lines of code and a little css, ... it just comes easy to JS....

Any pretty much any other terminal built with flexibility and extensibility in mind (even the base terminal in Linux can handle links lol, that's definitely not exclusive to js). ZSH springs to mind, with the benefit of being written in Case, so that you know, it's actually fast...

> The same flexibility you see in Atom, VSC and the others.

Ah yes, including the freedom to not open any binary file, or any file >2mb in size!
