> I'll be honest, I just took a bit of offence to the "sensible defaults" wording.

Then I have to apologize for the bad joke.

I wanted to show cute and inspiring things, that would make people smile during the holidays, not offend people with bad jokes.

> They make no sense to me. I have no idea what any of those key combos do.

It's made to evoke what the result will look like, based on the characters on the keys (like ; is a thing above the other, so it evokes vertical split)

However, I feel Ctrl-T should be the default to create tabs (since that's how anyone does in the browser, while Ctrl-Shift-T reopens) so I'm not sure about how to mix and match all that (+ my lack of use of vim splits) to select defaults that'll give a great experience.

> Maybe I'm just grumpy because I'm sick during the holiday season :(.

Then get better and let's talk about shortcuts later!

Someone who likes window splitting and care about vim shortcuts in vim could help a lot!
