Huh, I had iterm running half a year ago and couldn't see any advantage and removed it because of "simple systems" purist reasons. Guess I'll try again.
macOS doesn't support some basic ways of rendering text and colors. I see iTerm as strictly necessary if you are serious about using the Terminal on a Mac.
I mainly use it for git, basic files stuff and Scripting away chore tasks, so I never experienced any limits. But maybe I just touched some of that turf now.
