Semantically, it's something of a cross between the popular packages "evil
mode" and "god mode". I do understand that it's pretty strongly 'inside
baseball'[1], but it's also (IMHO) the sort of idiosyncratic package that
one would usually not expect new-to-emacs users to pick up right out of the
gate.
Hope that helps,
