I'm guilty of some of these anti-patterns (like for example the arrow keys) but honestly I feel incredibly fast and productive when using ViM. I'm afraid to drastically tweak my workflow at this point because I don't think the optimization will be worth it.

Overall it feels like good advice but it's just not my cup of tea.

Cars? I'd have to learn to drive? What's wrong with my horse I already know how to ride?

haha, I see what you mean and it does sound like I have a bad attitude. But I feel like the overall gain I'd get from this isn't worth the time I'll spend retraining my muscle memory.

Or in other terms, I don't think I'm going from horse to car.

Perhaps I should experiment for a month and see if it does actually make a difference.
