I've been wanting to change this setting for SO LONG I just didn't know what it was called. Very happy to accidentally run into this

You can delete a word in a terminal? Is this zsh specific or is there a bash equivalent?

Terminal user for 20 years, never heard of this.

Alt+Backspace works in bash too, and should work in any other command-line program that reads input using readline.
