Bottom line - you don't like to use vi (or prefer to use your mouse). Those of us who use vi have experienced its benefits. (And using visual mode to yank helps eliminate counting errors ;) ) Neither of us will change, and making arguments to the contrary is worse than arguing about religion (although one could very well argue that choice of editors is practically a religion, and I'm sure there are many folks out there who defend their editor more than their religion).
