Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior in VSCodeVim with folded code, comparing holding j with pressing it repeatedly as shown in the issue. Confirm that folded lines are skipped in both cases, then trace the motion handling to identify why idle time changes the result; done means consistent fold skipping.
