Micro is more suited for people that are used to the Windows/Notepad-CUA workflow (Use Ctrl-C for copy Ctrl-V to paste, Shift-Arrow to select, etc.) and want to use that workflow inside the terminal instead of a full blown GUI application.
If you are already learned how to use vim Micro doesn't make much sense.

The main issue is probably that Windows editors rely heavily on modifier-arrow combinations. It's quite fiddly to get them all to work correctly inside the various terminals, and there is not much that a application running inside a terminal can do about that.
