Popping into nvim to check on something really quick seems immediately useful. I think I'll still want a dedicated tab or different terminal app to have my longer lived editor open but this might be nice for validating output with test runners or checking on a database entry in psql or something.

I'm not sure how usable neovim will be in what looks to be a 6 line high window as they show in the demo video.
Pretty sure you can expand it full-screen there.
I had problems running Emacs in no window mode (emacs -nw). I should try again, or maybe just use vim.
