I probably meant "tty1" vs "tty2" etc ...

the docstring says
,----[ C-h f terminal-list RET ]
| terminal-list is a built-in function in `C source code'.
|
| (terminal-list)
|
| Return a list of all terminal devices.
|
| [back]
`----
but the function returns
,----
| (#<terminal 1 on /dev/tty>)
`----
in my case although Archlinux with systemd has several terminals
pre-initialized AFAIK.
So this `terminal-list' is just about M-x term from within Emacs and
then

`----
I guess.
