It just makes a lot of stuff way easier once you know how to use it. Switching out a word for another: two button-presses, duplicating a line: three presses, deleting 500 consecutive lines: five presses

How do we work this? Do we alternate between trying to ruin people's lives with elisp and chasing the perfect .vimrc or lua - config? Maybe grab some bytes from /dev/urandom and send them to the editor whose first letter comes up first? What about holidays?

But you can do all that with nano and it is straight forward and you don't need to memorize any key combinations. I mean, I get it and no judgement here. I just use nano because it's easy and quick.
You can also copy paste by manually copying text by hand, would call that a valid alternative to Ctrl-C/V?
