Retro-shift is a key component to people that use tap-hold home row mods, and also uses autoshift, without it, you wouldn't be able to autoshift keys that are also tap-hold keys (it would produce the held modifier instead)

Note for anyone who comes across this. If you disable qmk settings in your rules.mk by adding "QMK_SETTINGS = no", retroshift will work. There's something at play where vial's qmk settings either override or ignore the compiled configuration.

I'd really like retroshift to be supported as a first class citizen, but in the discord channel the last mention of it was in 2022, and at the time folks were thinking it would be really difficult to support due to the many defines that retroshift has.
