To be clear (but I know you understood), I was
saying that menus, `C-h m', etc. mean that one
doesn't _need to remember_ all key bindings for
a mode.  They serve as a quick (yes) reminder.

Clearly, if someone uses the same menu item a few
times in the same session s?he might start using
the keyboard binding for it that's shown for it.

It's definitely not that the existence of such
help requires one to use it "every time" to
carry out a command.
