Not screen.
He's never used screen before, therefore he has no reason not to use tmux.

tmux is better that screen in a variety of ways. Many of those ways are minor,
however all together and in total they're significant enough. You may want to
stay with screen if you have a highly-customised .screenrc and use many other
machines on which you're unable to install tmux, but screen should not be
recommended over tmux without a very good reason.
Stroller.
