The idea is to avoid some trivial moves where C-n would be sufficient,
e.g., in tables, properties drawers. Also Text mode skip those, since it
doesn't understand such structures.

I don't think it's much controversial, but stop points are necessarily
opinionated. I hope they make sense.
Also, testing could unveil some bugs.

Honestly, I don't know if Sexp-based navigation is useful at all. Does
anyone use such navigationĀ ?

I don't either. I didn't notice there was a difference until recently.
