The reason to teach keyboard commands is not because some people
don't have rodents on their desks. It is not due to legacy reasons
or the lack of rodents that most Emacs users seem to prefer
keyboard commands. The reason is that keyboard navigation is fast
and efficient. It is important to teach useful interactions to
users.
