Your experience is unsurprising. It depends on how much time you spend in a default configuration and how disparate your config is to that default.
I have no qualms using default vim despite it not being my standard method of work, but I still hate the feeling of any case where some muscle memory sequence does not result in what I expect. Ideally I don't want to have to think about anything outside of the problem at hand at all, and this is exactly the kind of thing that breaks immersion.
Because of this, among other reasons, I like small configs, standard input methods, programs with sane defaults and having a simple dotfiles repo.
On this note I can't wait til the next best set of standard input/output comes along, like AR screen so we can move around freely and naturally while working... that's the dream
