LOL - This is precisely why I prefer GUI's. ;)
I have two PostgreSQL icons on my taskbar - a blue elephant (pgAdmin
III) and a little monitor (PSQL). When I click on PSQL, it always
opens at least two windows or instances. When I type things in and hit
enter, it spawns more windows. I've counted at least as many as a dozen.

Please DO NOT top post!!!
I use both GUI's & terminals.
The 'don't worry your tiny little mind' philosophy of Apple is an
anathema to me - it tries to hide too much of the useful stuff from
users. I use the 'Mate' Desktop (http://mate-desktop.org) Environment
from Fedora Linux - I have 35 virtual desktops each with 2 highly
configured panels that auto hide, and both my terminals and directory
windows allow multiple tabs (just like web browsers). Apple does not
permit such extensive customisation.
To get a proper terminal in an Apple Mac, have a look at:

Note that it uses the bash shell, see:
