Not only that, it is more ergonomic -- if you can get the same thing done without moving your arm so much, it reduces the strain. It is for this exact reason I am using vim in VSCode. I get some speed up in vim vs mastering VSCode shortcuts, but not enough that would make me switch. However, with vim I hardly need to move my arm over to use arrow keys or mouse, which makes it much easier on my hands and my arm.
