Author here, thanks for reading. I totally agree that non-determinism is tricky. The big thing that got me to try McFly was the suggestions are path specific. I hear fish shell has this feature built in, but I havn't tried it out.
I may be unique in this regard but the types of actions I do in one path are very different from those I do in others: working on my blog is very different from the types of things I do when working on code and it was nice to have history aware of this.
I haven't actually used McFly a lot though, so I haven't quite seen if it going to become a permanent thing for me. The UI of using FZF for history is nicer, I just didn't like the suggested matches.
You are right though, I don't have my arrow keys setup like this. I'll try that out as well. Thanks for the tip!
