IMO that's the proper way to learn Emacs.

Doom seemed right to me at the time because I just wanted to uncomment `;; org` in `init.el` , not learn a lot of keybindings and get started.

I think I'll start an "Emacs from scratch" someday too.

Why didn't you just start with the arrow, backspace, and delete keys?

Sorry, don't get your point. What do arrow, backspace, and delete have to do with wanting to use Vim's keybindings on Emacs?
