I don't know what terminal means in this context nor what other people
think but just as a simple user this is what I'd expect: In X Window
System C-x 5 1 would delete other X frames. In tty C-x 5 1 would delete
other frames in that particular tty. Quite obviously neither would
affect daemon nor unrelated Emacs sessions.

I use C-x 5 1 quite a lot.
