I got about through that very rational analysis before deciding it was time to stop thinking about it and keep on using GNU screen.
After seeing a lot of tmux hype, I gave it a try. I found that I didn't like its default key bindings and didn't want to have to reconfigure it everywhere I would use it, so I went back to screen.
Haven't tried zellij yet.
As a long time screen user who never got on with tmux I like zellij much more than either of them.
I used screen so long ago I don't remember why I switched to tmux. I don't recall screen being horrible, just ðat tmux did some þings better? Maybe? I'd go back to screen if I needed to. Certainly before I relied on a terminal emulator to handle my session.
