Agree with your point on nano. I used it as a beginner too, but once you get past the basic typing something in, vim is king.

However, I disagree with the rest of your post. Hjkl are superior to arrow keys once you get used to them. I thought that day would never come, but I got used to it way quicker than initially anticipated.

As a 60% owner and 34 key ergo advocator, also disagree with the last point.

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.^[I agree with the fact that you disagree with me. Nothing else.]

Oh, and I also don't like the pseudo ergonomics of mechanical keyboards.
All they do is make it harder to use with a more relaxed hand position.
