I agree with most of what you're saying. Now, about the skills of the users, I think people are smart and can learn more easily than we think, if and only if they're taught right.

It's what I tried to do. I don't know if I succeeded, but so far I had only positive return, so it's encouraging :)

About the mix of both: I agree if I'm a long period on my keyboard or on my mouse, but not interleaving the use of both.

The point about skill is that an unskilled/inexperienced user is typically going to have more trouble navigating a keyboard based interface than a mouse based one - nothing about how easy or hard it is to gain that skill.

Agree context switching between both too much is a pain.
