Threads are allowed to change scope, right? And this is a pretty minimal
scope change, ff one at all.  Let me ask you simply: Do you agree that
the new 'flex' style should -- by default -- mark the matched pattern
strongly
and  prominently (at least as prominently as completion-first-difference),
so that the user gets help in choosing the completion, in much the
same way as he gets such help in VScode, Sublime, Atom, Helm, Ivy,
etc.?

Some of your statements make me think you agree with this, and some
make me think that you don't.

If you are opposed to this, and you can't be convinced, we agree
to disagree and I'm going to go do something else. If you are for it,
I think we've collected some alternatives that do that, each with
advantages and drawbacks.
