Mostly I agree with you; on the editor issue, though, part of why I like vim, and probably why different people like emacs, is how much they're optimized for all kinds of variants of copypasta (yank the arguments from inside a set of parens, stick them somewhere else, jump to the 2nd comma-separated param, mess with it a little, etc.) Which, by the way, this kind of typing practice doesn't help you with at all.
