That's a fair statement of my position.

You don't have to go very far before you realize how utterly unsuited both
QP2TERM and interactive QSH are for modern usage.

What use is a shell wherein it is almost impossible to use the Unix more
command?

It's over. The fans have gone home, the janitors are smoking out by the
dumpster, and the stadium is locked.

ssh for interactive and QSH for CL launcher scripts is all there is in our
brave new world.
