I think Bike is more "tool for thought" than it is tool for notes. It's more like a text editor with some magic features, then it is like a directory of text files.
So value proposition... It's a unique surface for your ideas. The way that it "feels" is important and different than any other app. If that helps you think then Bike might be fore you.
In another comment I said Fluid = Animation... and it does, but there's another aspect of fluid with Bike. If you try most any outliner there are pretty rigid tools. A little hard to explain, but they don't feel "fluid" like a text editor. There are limits and constraints. Bike is different in that it has all the capabilities of an outliner, but it also has all the freedom of a text editor. You can select over multiple lines, cursor moves like a text editor.
Not sure that I've explained that last bit well... but try a good outliner like Workflowy. Then try Bike, beyond the animations (they can be turned off in preferences) Bikes core editing commands feel different.
