My PhD Research Workflow—Emacs Inside
For changing, deleting or adding Latex environments or other delimiters around text I use embrace instead of something like your change-env. With some customization to better support Latex it works pretty much like change-env, only it can't handle labels, and it's also useful generally for any kind of delimiter (punctuation, html tags etc) across Emacs.

How much do you use evil-mode?
- Embrace (the ``xah-insert`` family of commands are not powerful enough for parentheses editing imho, and most of them are extremely useless). I've managed to configure Embrace to behave almost exactly like XFK, just with a wider range of features.

Non evil replacement for evil-surround?
You can try these packages. A bit outdated, but I hope it works: https://github.com/cute-jumper/embrace.el

insert-parentheses and more generic functions
https://github.com/cute-jumper/embrace.el This may be what you want. I like it a lot. It's very configurable, comes with a Hydra-like interface but you can also just use the commands in your own keymap, and has a lot of capabilities.

It looks like that package has an issue tracker here, if you wanted to raise one: https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-collection/issues

What should I do on my Corne keymap to make Emacs easier?
Honestly, I've yet to find a plugin that I use that isn't covered by https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-collection. I love emacs, but I can't stand the chords.

How usable is Emacs with its default keybindings?
Evil and Evil Collection is the nuclear option.

Emacs setup for people who suffer from RSI
I still have phases where I experiment with modal editing, but I haven't messed with Evil-mode in a long time. I prefer Meow, in part because it doesn't invest everything on a single command layout. And the sample Dvorak layout meshes really well with Emacs bindings for special modes (like Dired and Ibuffer). So you don't have to install and configure something like Evil-collection just to use the same bindings everywhere.

Does it worth to use Emacs keybindings instead of doom's predefined?
The problem I have with evil in Emacs is that it is another layer on top of vinalla Emacs. Not many packages are designed with evil key bindings in mind. You need packages like https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-collection and and https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-magit and https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-ediff to make Emacs feel more "evil". Distros like Doom and Spacemacs integrate these packages for you, but then you're even farther away from the default Emacs experience. I also find online help worse for evil bindings. To figure stuff out you often have to resort to looking at vim or neovim documentation. "Vanilla" Emacs is famously "self documenting" but last I checked evil couldn't provide useful help, within Emacs, in the same way.

Modal editing: Evil, Boon or Meow?
Evil does interfere with bindings in some modes, but https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-collection fixes a lot of these issues, both for built-in modes and a lot of popular third-party ones.

How to actually define key binds in Emacs?
Oh, and stick this in your use-package for general: ;; We want SPC as a leader key, probably. So do this. It just affects what ;; keybinds are overridden by the `override' keymap functionality that ;; `general' provides. ;; ;; https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-collection#making-spc-work-similarly-to-spacemacs ;; ;; NOTE: `evil-collection' binds over SPC in many packages. To use SPC as a ;; leader key with `general', first set these override states: (setq general-override-states '(insert emacs hybrid normal visual motion operator replace))

Is my understanding of Vim and Emacs correct?
Evil mode is incredible, but it has real disadvantages in the Emacs context. It is another layer above Emacs, which makes Emacs different from its default self. E.g. most packages don't come with evil-mode key bindings. The popular Emacs packages are handled by https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-collection but, there is always going to be a layer of translation between how upstream describes its key bindings and how Evil binds them.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing embrace.el and evil-collection you can also consider the following projects:
smartparens - Minor mode for Emacs that deals with parens pairs and tries to be smart about it.
meow - Yet another modal editing on Emacs / 猫态编辑
xah-fly-keys - the most efficient keybinding for emacs
composable.el - Composable text editing for Emacs.
evil-org-mode - Supplemental evil-mode keybindings to emacs org-mode
siege-mode - An emacs minor mode to surround the region with smart delimiters interactively.
doom-emacs - An Emacs framework for the stubborn martian hacker [Moved to: https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs]
system - My system configuration
emacs-which-key - Emacs package that displays available keybindings in popup
ink - LaTeX + Inkscape
general.el - More convenient key definitions in emacs
