I agree...

Assuming that the bold feature is acheived with control codes enclosing the
bold parts of the text, I think it would need to be possible to turn it off, for
users who pipe terminal output elsewhere for subsequent processing.

Are there any OSes whose terminals don't honour these control codes?

Presumably those who explicitly direct such output to named files wouldn't
see the control codes?
