The mode will also mess with Vim's "verb" → "noun" mindset.
Motions are nouns and usually the idea is to minimize their use.

Last the mode does nothing to =C-v= which is still working with a cursor on
top of character model.
In practice =C-v= is still usable and useful but it does have bugs tied to
motions and the end of line position.

The mode can make it a better experience to pick up the /modal framework/.
Last Emacs pinky is a real thing and /fewer layers/ might be important.
This will also be helpful to people who use "sticky keys" accessibility.
