The use cases are not necessarily the same for line
mode as for cursor mode.

It is probably better, if possible, to be consistent
between the ”verb before object” modal editors, which it
is for line mode, as far as I can see. I use vi or nvi
for sysop things, vis (vise in OpenBSD) for programming
and vim or nvim(neovim) for text editing (since i need
spell checking). 

The ”object before verb” modal editors (kakuone and
helix) behaves more like your diff for line mode, but
they are so different anyway so it doesn’t matter.
