Vis inherits default keymaps. I prefer the way kakoune tried to clean them up by - for example - putting all the "goto" commands under "g" (where Vim has H, M, L, g;, G, gg, $, 0, ^, etc) and all the "view" commands under "v". Such rearrangements make a lot of sense and to me were more intuitive right away, even after a decade use of Vim. Then there are things like ";" and ",", W, B, E, and gE (where something like w, W, e, E would be a lot more obvious), etc. Vim likely acquired those incrementally and that's why they are all over the place. But if an editor were to start from scratch they could be re-arranged in a more logical order. Yet every vim-inspired editor takes Vim defaults for granted.
