Same. Consult in general has a bunch of great utility functions that are well integrated with the Emacs core.
I’m looking into dropping Vertico after I upgrade to 29. It’s almost incredible that Minad’s user focus and humility make that a potentially reasonable option, and I really appreciate the fantastically sound design of his completion ecosystem.

What do you mean? Vertico is a library that provides a UI for displaying completions; Consult is a library that provides commands to select items with completion. The two libraries complement each other.
I think GP agrees with you and meant keeping Consult while dropping Vertico (which is possible due since Consult works with icomplete and with default completion).
I think it is unrelated, except in that you can because Consult also works with completion UIs other than Vertico. I’m not sure why he or she mentioned it. 🤷

You have to use emacs regexps though, Both complement each other.
