It's a bit of a joke, it's intended to make you laugh like when I say to go buy an OLED screen instead of commenting out a specific line :)
But TBH it's only half a joke: I think not supporting selection with Shift and Control+Shift+Arrows may drive intermediate users away.
> I will say that the "tab" line is a super useful feature
Absolutely! Like you, I've also noticed the tabline (and the line numbers) helps when I'm showing files to other people.
Even if everything else I consider sensible defaults (rainbows! emacs/readline like chording shortcuts everywhere! selection with the arrows, shift and control!) doesn't popular, I hope the tabline with X,Y coordinates and hex position will.

I actually don't have anything like this to move words around! I use `]e` and `[e` from tpope's unimpaired [0] for moving lines around (I use tons from that plugin). I may toy around with some word-moving mappings. I do agree with readline everywhere! I'm on mac and have it configured so readline works in all apps, lol. Again with the tpope plugins, vim-rsi is a great plugin and I very much agree with its premise: I love the stand vim bindings in command mode but when in some kind of "insert" mode, even outside of vim, I want readline!
