I am curious about the hours of typing thing. I don't normally need much boilerplate, so I normally just type things. If I do need boilerplate, I yank the boilerplate into a buffer and put it into the file I am working on. Yet I feel like the overall time spent doing this is incredibly slight. I feel like it's possible some time could be shaved off somewhere there, but this all happens very quickly and it's not an area where optimization would improve things much overall. For this to amount to literal hours of typing, I think I would need to be either very much slower at typing, writing an immensely large volume of boilerplate, or working over many many years. Typing stuff is essentially never a bottleneck for me.
