is this vim? I use IJKL for gaming (left handed mouser) and the arrangement you describe would break me. I’ve got 15+ years of body memory that says I is up/forward, K down/backward, J left and L right. It’s based on the shape not the letter meaning.
@Alex P. 👹 Honestly, it feels like a hack from people who were slaves to the home row, and the speed at which is works while not moving my hands from typing position feels really good to me.
I think people use "unintuitive" to mean "bad" a lot and I think it's one of those cases where it's stuck because when you figure it out it works *well*
