that's not going to work well
MobaXterm is based on PuTTY (when I last looked at it - in 2015 - it differed
from PuTTY only by providing a more complete set of xterm-compatible function
keys than PuTTY). PuTTY's developer added support for repeat in February 2019
(it might work properly now -- reading the commit comment, I doubt it).
Since MobaXterm was based on modifying PuTTY, it's unlikely that its developed
picked up changes like this. If there's a way to configure MobaXterm to set
TERM to a proper value, there's reason to develop a correct terminal
description for it.
fwiw, "infocmp -x putty xterm-new" gives me 209 lines of differences

nor that (the cursor/editing keys won't match)
but infocmp shows only 127 lines of difference :-)
