Are these things you're actively missing? Or are they things that you kind of think you don't need, but suspect you might be wrong about? The latter is really the question I'm asking...

Some I'm actively missing. Some I've been doing without for years but suspect they could significantly improve my life.

What is "orthogonal persistence"? And "control frames"?

Orthogonal Persistence: See https://ngnghm.github.io/ chapters 2-5. Or for an academic paper, Jochen Liedtke's 1993 "A Persistent System in Real Use—Experiences of the First 13 Years" https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/A-Persistent-System-in-Real-Use-Experiences-of-the-Liedtke/404ad0c0a565061ff35573513e5ba79ef3f3e8be … I remember fondly persistence on my HP28C, though it was no System/38.
