> The UX is almost the same as git,

I've used git and mercurial for roughly the same amount of time.

Your statement is, frankly, something that makes me question your sanity. They're not remotely similar. Outside of something like Perforce, I've not used a VCS with a worse UI.

I’ve used both in parallel for 10 years or so. They are very similar, I find no problem switching back and forth
I can also switch back and forth between JavaScript and C++. Doesn't mean they are similar.

Conceptually, branches in git and mercurial are worlds apart.
