I agree with this (the second part). You HAVE to somehow make that string a string. So maybe you will only hit one key rather than 2 (quote, and quote again), but honestly you have macros that allow you to hit it only once. I think one big part of all of this is speed of execution: both maximum speed, but also the learning curve. And I'm not at all sure that we can do better than typing text. Hell we've been trying to get rid of the keyboard for years, and yet nothing is faster than a VIM ninja
