I had used jj for only a month before I switched back to git for a particular project at work. I felt that jj was *really* nice, but nothing more.

After returning to vanilla git, I was missing the jj convenience within hours.

>but nothing more

What does that imply?

From their post:

"Within hours, I found myself being exceedingly cautious about everything. I missed the confidence jj undo gave me. I missed the simplicity of jj new and jj describe."

You missed the point - the question was, if jj is really nice, then why "nothing more"?
