My issue with this is that it causes a delay with every single j that is entered. Only a visual delay that freezes the cursor and then lets it jump by two characters, but irritating for me regardless.

Otherwise it's very practical though.

I thought I was the only one. That visual delay made me nuts.

I don’t use it either but I think you can change the delay. Check out :h 'ttimeout' and :h 'ttimeoutlen'

Haven’t touched that part of my vimrc in years

Changing the delay will not completely get rid of this phenomenon but will definitely make a ton of my other shortcuts harder to use. That visual delay makes a lot of sense, it's just not a feature that was intended with this specific use in mind and so it seems to behave strange for jj/jk/etc shortcuts.
