> There is probably some lingering unfamiliarity with git among jj enthusiasts as well.

I've heard this a few times. But from what I've seen, it seems like often it's the Git enthusiasts who seem to be unfamiliar with jj. I haven't heard from anyone who used jj for a few months and knew it well and then switched to Git.

I have never used jj, nor met anyone who used it in person. Given how new it is, you just won't find enough people who used it at all. I think git is like the vim of VCS systems and like vim there are some people who just don't think that way. I think jj might be more like emacs in that it has the initial appearance of being simple, but when you get into it more deeply you realize that it is not so simple after all.

I have used other VCS systems that made similar claims about being simpler, such as Mercurial. I think I got to be fairly expert at Mercurial before becoming expert at git, and even used it to interact with SVN repositories. (I've also used git for SVN. This is another thing git does better.) After actually learning git past the first few commands, I would never go back to Mercurial. I don't want to mix and match systems either. There are things I want git to do better, but I would not call these simple feature requests... They are more along the lines of advanced features that need to be extended or polished.
