With no config at all, ghostty looks nicer than my alacritty setup. The rendering is just real nice. I could probably get alacritty to look as nice or nicer, but ghostty just worked this way with no config needed.
So you could consider aesthetics and rendering quality, and simplicity of setup both as features, which people may need/want (or not).
I wouldn't argue against that at all: OOBE is absolutely a feature.
Problem is, we don't all agree with what the OOBE should be. I, for example, always strip out menus, tabs, and other UI features. For me, the terminal that requires the least lines in the config file is probably going to be the winner (assuming no unfixable defects that effect me).
