What are the differences between this and htop, by example?

I know htop can strace processes with the "s" key.

This was my first thought, too.

Which useful feature does this tool have what htop does not have?

Let's say there is such a feature. Why did they not implement it in htop? Made a patch and offered it to upstream? This is why we have FOSS. To benefit from each other's work.

This is why so much open source software is crap and without any structure.

Htop is very different from proc on. Integrating proc on into Htop would make zero sense. Why would you suggest this would be a good idea without knowing what the software does?

Finally Vi become emacs-evil.
