Do you feel like top-down point-and-click movement is not precise?

My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.

It underutilizes the pinky, and it's not the home keys.
ESDF still lets you reach tab, caps lock, shift, ctrl and alt, but opens it up so your pinky can also use Q, A and Z. With WASD your pinky can only really hit the "big keys". Everything else can just get shifted over by one. Plus, if you're a touch typist your fingers are already good at finding the home keys so your ring finger is already used to being on "S". That means if you have to stretch to hit a special key, it's easier to get back to the right keys. Plus many keyboards have a nub on F and J so you can find them / verify you're on the right keys by touch.
My left pinkie doesn't have that kind of dexterity
So, you're unable to type with it? This kind of movement is no different from typing where you have to use the occasional word like "quick", "active" or "zygote".
I don't actually use it for z! Haha
Also, I feel like needing to hold ctrl or shift is a fairly common requirement in games. I think it'd be too uncomfortable to do that from one column further away
It's not, I don't have particularly big hands and it's easy.
