On: Vim is touch-typing on steroids

[charcircuit]

Yes. Instead of just control + v they have to switch out of insert mode and into normal mode, then do a command to paste their clipboard, then have to do a command to go back to insert mode. It's overcomplicated.

[jonas-w → charcircuit]

They just press ctrl+alt+v in insert mode or if they are in normal mode they will press p.

[charcircuit → jonas-w]

See. There is to point to have normal mode if you can just do it in insert mode.

[throwaway_au_1 → charcircuit]

You do not seem to have a grasp on Vim which qualifies you to assert that it is overcomplicated.

[charcircuit → throwaway_au_1]

I do have a grasp on Vim. Even if I didn't the fact you used the term grasp shows that it is overcomplicated. A text editor should have such good ui that one instantly grasps it.
