it's pretty obvious, but... what i meant is that the ability to
predict *your* terminal width with high accuracy is a very weak
argument for inflicting an arbitrary limit derived from that on the
entire slime user base (modulo the forks with all their wasted
divergence).

i wouldn't have pointed this out if you didn't try to defend the
status quo on top of that, but rather e.g. shrug, and say that it's
good enough for you as it is, and patches are welcome.

oh, but wait! are patches welcome?
