Terminals should generate the 256-color palette from the user's base16 theme.
If you've spent much time in the terminal, you've probably set a custom base16 theme. They work well. You define a handful of colors in one place and all your programs use them.
The drawback is that 16 colors is limiting. Complex and color-heavy programs struggle with such a small palette.
