DF is inefficient and inconsistent even with the hotkeys memorized. It's no vim.
I'm sure minecraft will be smaller by then, but that's because it's far less complex and development is basically nil at this point. Nothing to do with how the controls are implemented.
Actually, modded Minecraft sees an enormous amount of activity, particularly of late it seems. It's started cannibalizing my DF time, of all things--vanilla Minecraft is dull by comparison.
DF sees a little of this with dfhack and all the mods on the forums.

Yes, there is a bounty of mod activity, but it is rare for mods to outlast the source game by a decade.
