A comment on :wq.

I wonder why people can accidentally type ":wq" in insert mode and save it. What are example use cases that make people accidentally save ":wq" document?

I often use vim and so far almost never accidentaly save ":wq" file.

I had that problem lately on a new box where "set -sg escape-time 0"[0] was not set in tmux. It feels so different and annoying I kept mashing the buttons.
