I suspect just by making sure that the cursor never leaves the middle of the screen may help better with habit formation than relative line numbers. This way, when one looks few lines below or above the middle it is easier to associate the distance to the center of the screen with numbers on the keyboard compared with distance to an arbitrary line in the screen. Plus relative line numbers will be perceived by the side vision which is rather poor in humans so they mostly help when one consciously looks into them.
But then the question should be what is the end goal here? Is it faster edits in Vim or is it to get job done?
