I actually used to do this myself -- I had my own "visual line move"
commands, bound to C-S-p / C-S-n.

However even that was annoying, mostly because since wrapped lines are
in fact, rare, I would almost always first do the wrong thing and then
have to correct it:  C-p, end up in the wrong place, curse, move back
down with C-n, and then visually move up again with C-S-p.

In other words, despite knowing about the issue and having my fingers
trained for over 20 years using traditional C-p, _still_ I would often
instinctively expect visual behavior.  It was a palpable relief when
Emacs adopted its current behavior.
