While some might hate the idea of a web-technology-based terminal, some folks really seem to love Hyper.
I like ITerm primarily because of the multiple panes! I think there are other customizations you can use as well, but that's my main reason!
Some key features of iTerm:
Essentially, the only reason not to install iTerm is if you don't have permissions to install apps :)

Totally agree with you iTerm is LOVE :D
I don't know what the state is today, but historically (as with a lot of bundled software) the Mac app has lagged pretty far behind other modern terminals with features such as split-screens, colour and mouse support.
Even if it has caught up today, I suspect many people are just in the habit of installing iTerm on new machines.
With iTerm2 I am able to use mouse mode on vim. I can have a NERDTree buffer, and 2 other buffers with files open. And I can scroll as if it were any non terminal editor
