The biggest win for me to use ngn/k is the built-in documentation. K is primarily taught through refcards, and most K refcards that you find in implementations are quite compact, like this: https://kparc.com/k.txt

While refcards like this are perfectly fine, they can confuse beginners at specific parts in the text. This is where ngn/k shines. It has a robust documentation system, containing several help commands for multiple subjects (types, verbs, adverbs, etc.). They also contain examples, have clear separation between subjects, and are way less ambiguous.
