There is a very large margin between time I spend considering the solution to a problem and the time I then spend writing it, so my main consideration with an editor is ergonomics. For example, if I can do a change without moving my hands off the home row in 20 seconds, that's better than a 5 second change that involves alternating between the keyboard and the mouse.

So you spend a long time considering a change, and then you care about a 15 second difference in the time it takes to apply that change?

I think you should reread the GP, what you're responding to is the opposite of what was said :)
