Why did she need a terminal?
I understand the "this is a bug" idea (to a certain point),
but
reality is harsh. It's going to take many years for this to change,
Hopefully not many years.
and removing a generally useful feature way before its time is not
helpful.
The terminal is still available. From half of the responses on this
thread you'd think it'd been removed entirely.
Please do not misunderstand me: I think the removal is a mistake,
but I don't think it's a huge deal. I wouldn't have maybe even
posted at all in this thread if it was for the barrage of comments
like "go tell someone who cares", "take a hike, you're not our
user",
etc.
That's not at all what most of the responses were; see for example:
