I think the take-home lesson is that confirmation offered in the default
mode is valuable.  The "single-key" mode is another long rope that I would
not use myself, but the users can choose to hang themselves with.

Jokes aside, it may make sense to offer an extra confirmation for "a" and
possibly "s" in single-key mode. Unlike others, they are destructive when
the changes you are splitting from the working tree is large-ish.
