Not just that, but:
- the individual opportunity costs of learning multiple VCSs likely outweigh the cost of learning 1, even if it's suboptimally difficult
- the community-wide leverage lost by having significant fractions of prospective oss devs who aren't comfortable contributing via one VCS or another probably outweighs the marginal leverage lost by alienating the fraction of prospective oss developers that find git unlearnable or oppressive or whatnot
(I am ~fine with breaking the monoculture for a once-a-generation move to a clearly superior model, but there's a risk of fracturing the ecosystem across several VCSs for decades to come.)
