biggest issue for me isn't just the selection->action framework, but that so many of the keys are completely different from vim, and no piece of documentation covers them. I tried using helix, but after searching for 5 minutes "how to do x in helix", I just gave up and went back to vim. I'm doing going to do a search for every operation.
I think if helix wants to get much wider adoption, they should seriously investigate making a keybinding that works as close to vim as physically possible. This is the biggest thing holding it back from taking over imo.
