Not sure what you mean. It's already a completely superfluous and additional feature. It "should" execute completely separate of everything regardless of what integrations it has.
Though if it doesn't yet exist as a separate thing to hook in to (and it doesn't), it's got to execute somewhere. Makes sense it'd show up as a canned extension or addition to something before it'd show up as a perfectly logically integrated tool.
Terminal emulator is the window, the tabs, integration with your desktop, etc.
Shell is more complicated but TLDR is this is everything showing in your terminal window by default, the base program you use that runs other programs. The prompt showing current user, saving history, coloring the input, basic editing keyboard shortcuts, etc.
By having this AI integrations in a terminal emulator we are very much limiting ourselfs. It would look more fancy in popup windows, but it won't work over remote connections and not be as portable.
Usually when we do some smart functions like autocomplete, fuzzy search or integrations like that we do it as an shell (fish, bash, zsh) extension, then it will work on any emulator and even without a GUI.
Yea, I agree it 'should' be integrated in a more general way. Though my point is from the dev's perspective: Why go through the extra effort to 'properly' do it if it is an unproven tool many people don't want?
Not saying it should stay there, just saying it makes sense it showed up somewhere less sensical than the ideal implementation.
