I'll be honest, I just took a bit of offence to the "sensible defaults" wording.
I think there probably are some things you can do in vim that the vast majority would agree with. But I think you've gone a wee bit too far into just making it your preferences. I totally get your logic by the way, I'm just not convinced it's strong enough to be considered a "sensible default" ;).
You're not wrong that it's 3 keys instead of 2, but I find it makes sense. Ctrl-w puts you in (w)indow management mode and then you split (v)ertically or (h)orizontally. I don't split often enough that it matters. I do remap ctrl-w+h/j/k/l to just ctrl+h/j/k/l since I do move around in my splits that saving a keypress does matter.

They make no sense to me. I have no idea what any of those key combos do.
FWIW, I see you said that it was a bit of a joke in another comment. Maybe I'm just grumpy because I'm sick during the holiday season :(.
Also for what it's worth, the general idea is super cool. I love seeing all the cool things cosmo enables

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.

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.

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!
