More people should definitely try out sam and 9term as examples of how much code/features you don't really need and can still get real work done.
Personally, I wish sam had even less complexity and features than it currently does and thus be more understandable and hackable. Also, never going back to a normal terminal again, "dumb" terminals are awesome.
And actually, this experience has lead to a philosophy of software where I think the "dumb"er a piece of software the better and more reliable/performant it is likely to be. So I'm also hugely skeptical of the current Deep AI efforts leading to anywhere good.
