The split wasn't arbitrary, look at how many non static functions
there are in term.c.
The terminal emulation code has nothing to do with how it's rendered;
term.c could conceivably be used for something like tmux (and reducing
the number of vt100 emulator implementations out there would be a good
thing!).
And dividing the code into logically unrelated parts makes it easier
to understand and figure out what various code is trying to do.
Anyways, either you value readability and understandability or you
don't. If you don't... I'm not going to cry if my code doesn't get
merged in, it won't bother me in the slightest, and you can keep doing
things how you see fit.
