The only person I'm seeing here as a reactionary is you.
I love vim. I'm using neovim a fair bit now, too. How wonderful is it to be spoiled for choice?
I think it's great we have two vibrant lines of *vim development and the opportunity to learn the best lessons from each. Here, I think it's a bit of a bummer: neovim has proven lua to be pretty decent (as much as I dislike lua itself) and this would have been a decent place for vim itself to consider following.
As a result, we're going to have a plugins/scripts ecosystem that's more fragmented than it needs to be. Meh.
