:q, if you didn’t make a change, is even shorter.

  It's not shorter—there is an implied `<cr>` at the end there and as you have it written it's the same length. Also, if you did make a change, `:q` will yell at you. If that's what you want, though, that's totally cool. The advantage of `ZZ` is that it can be used as a general "close this window" command. It'll work on unmodifiable buffers as well without complaining.

  If you do this half the time you will have forgotten that you have edited the file and won't be able to exit

    If I forgot I had edited a file and I’m leaving it as if I hadn’t, I will want to know.
