I'm one of the git users you describe who are resistant to jj. jj sounds great, Steve Klabnik's endorsement is very convincing, and I would probably love it, but here's the issue: I've used git for 17 years and have internalized its idiosyncracies sufficiently to practically never run into problems, and help anyone on my team who does.

jj is harder to adopt for people with a thorough mental model of git, because it's harder to accept jj commands at face value. I know it's modifying my git tree, so I feel compelled to grok exactly what it's doing, but that's distracting and time consuming.

People like me should probably trial jj exclusively for two weeks, to shed that antijjotic resistance and form a more clear-headed opinion.
