  • Hjkl are superior to arrow keys once you get used to them.

    I disagree with this point. I am able to use them quite functionally and I still want my arrow keys, because they are arrow keys. Also, you can use them without exiting INSERT mode.

    I do however, agree with your last point.[1]

    All they do is make it harder to use with a more relaxed hand position.


    1. I agree with the fact that you disagree with me. Nothing else. ↩︎
