Generally shortcuts are far more efficient - navigating via vim movements are incredibly fast for proficient users.

Same holds true if you use excel, shortcut gurus generally far faster to accomplish the same thing.

Back when I used to play World of Warcraft, you could tell the clickers snd how bad they were comparatively against dudes who had hundreds of bindings.
