Just to say that this is 1987 or whatever technology which should be 
quite easy to emulate in software, so why is there no terminal emulator 
which behaves EXACTLY like a vintage DEC terminal?

I usually have light text/dark screen, where the bold characters are not 
fatter but brighter than the normal ones.  I've never seen that on a 
terminal emulator.  Why not?
