This might be the point. As long as they think the people who end up under-counted are not people this government would like to have voting power for the House of Representatives.
https://github.com/typst/typst is an interesting competitor to ConTeXt. It's not even TeX, but somehow I tried (and liked) it before I tried CoTeXt. TeX syntax is not something I ever enjoyed in LaTeX.
How much more compatible with LaTeX is ConTeXt than typst? For example, is there tikz for ConTeXt?
This is less of a usable tool and more of a concept right now, but there are algorithmic ways to do better than rsync (for incremental transfers, ymmv).
The original version I suggested works too, but by accident. `redraw-on-quit` is the actual option name.
(I'd edit my original message, but it's too late for that)

Also, note that if you put `--redraw-on-quit` into your `LESS` config (and not `-X`), and set up `^q` as above, things will still work but with flipped behavior of `q` and `^q`.
If your version of `less` is new enough, I believe that the `--redraw-on-quit` behavior is in every way (slightly) better than the `-X` behavior. In addition to the above, some terminals have special behaviors in alternate screen (like converting mouse wheel to up/down keys), which `--redraw-on-quit` will preserve.
There's a way to make `^q` quit `less` and not clear the screen (like `less -X`), while `q` quits `less` and clears the screen (like normal `less`).
1. Do `echo '^q toggle-option -redraw-screen\nq' >> ~/.config/lesskey`
2. Make sure `less` is invoked without `-X` (or with `-+X` if you want to be sure).
This `^q` command is particularly useful for `git log` output and other things where you might need to refer back to them in the next terminal command you do. (In fact, `git` uses `less -FRX` by default, so you'd need to override its config to use `less -FR` instead for the above to work as intended). The `q` command is useful when you don't want to lose what you had on the screen before invoking `less`.

Shout out to moreutils, there are many nice utilities, and there's a `moreutils` package in most distributions.
Update: Looking at the authors listed in the man pages, the `trapd00r` version looks to be a fork of the moreutils version. Not sure how the functionality compares. Both versions seem to have been updated since the fork.
