Because J is the vim-keybinding to go down, and it makes a lot of sense
to map "down" to "next"/"right".

Also, with vertical tabs (:set tabs position left) it'd be confusing if
J/down would go up.

Not entirely. It's what dwb does, and qutebrowser's keybindings are
designed to be compatible with dwb's, because it originally was a
replacement for many stranded dwb users (such as myself).

:wq is aliased, :x isn't. Generally because qutebrowser is not vi, and
with some things it just doesn't make sense to try to shoehorn them into
qutebrowser. Even :wq is questionable - what do you expect "write" to do
in a browser?
