See my other comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13098257 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13098257. I don't use vi or Emacs, but I still use the Escape key constantly.
tl;dr: If you, like me, touch-type and work very fast, then the absence of tactile feedback on the new Esc is unnerving. It's like a work-stopper. Even if something did happen when you hit it, the lack of feedback means your brain automatically thinks you didn't hit anything. I don't know if this is something one gets used to. After a week, it's still awful.
