Comment (by remkos):
Indeed, it was the developers themselves that decided that the Qt5
terminal is better. See:
http://www.gnuplot.info/ReleaseNotes_6_0_1.html
Here the developers say about X11 (the "classic" interactive interface):
"This used to be the preferred interactive interface, but the newer wxt
and qt terminals offer nicer output and a wider range of features."
See also https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/25789 for the
decision process during the last port update to version 6.0.1 to adopt the
developers suggestion to no longer favour the X11 terminal.
