You could, but my answer would probably skew your opinion about as much as yours did mine. :D

To me the point of Konsole is that it works well, plus it's already there. Ghostty I need to make an effort to have it, however small it is, and I'm just trying to understand what I'd be missing if I didn't.

Konsole is not already there for me. I would have to make an effort to get Konsole, just like Ghostty. I’m struggling to see what point you are trying to make. Do you want someone to tell you Ghostty is better than Konsole to convince you to switch, or … not?

Cross-platform native GUI, built-in nerd font symbols. Simple text file configuration with trivially easy platform/machine-specific drop-ins.

Seems a bit of a disingenuous comment when you initially said "I still don't understand the point...".

Surely you understand Konsole is not already there for most people?

This days I don't really care about the terminal I use. It's xterm on OpenBSD, konsole on Fedora KDE, terminal.app on MacOS,... As long as I can use cli and the few TUI software I use.
