You might try the "chameleon-cursor-theme" package. There are several coloured cursors in that, hopefully one of theme is more visible.

I'm running Debian 12 on two systems, on both of them I use large

This means that the default X cursor isn't very visible when it's
somewhere in one of the terminal windows and I often have trouble
seeing it.

So, do any of the cursor themes in xcursor-themes actually change the
I-Beam cursor?  I've looked at a couple of other sets of cursor themes
and they don't change the I-Beam at all, they just change all the
other ones.

Alternatively a way to simply change the colour of the I-Beam would
help, it's obviously designed to be most visible on a dark background.

Please note this is the X/mouse cursor I'm talking about, not the text
cursor that shows where you are entering text in a terminal window.
