I get that. But it doesn’t mean those that prefer the terminal have Stockholm Syndrome.

The terminal is a UI optimised for keyboard entry. So of course mouse input to move the caret wouldn’t be something that is prioritised to support.

Again, that’s not Stockholm Syndrome; it’s just a different workflow.

You’re the one making ad hominem attacks by saying CLI users suffer from “Stockholm Syndrome”. That was your comment not mine.

I said I was willing to take your comment in good faith. Which isn’t a personal attack.

I’m really not interesting in meta arguments nor using intentionally antagonistic language. And if you continue to communicate this way then I will just ignore you.
