I always find it funny when people say to not repeat h-l, w-W keys for horizontal movement.

No way I am starting to count how many characters there are in front of my cursor just to have the satisfaction of typing "31-l"...

I am totally going to spam some 2w 3w llll until I reach the desired position.

I think it's more about getting used to f-F,t-T,A,I, and <semicolon> which can be quicker especially with code. You can also add easymotion or similar plugins for the powered version of those.

Well over 20 years of vim use, and I had to look up what f/F and t/T do. I'm pretty sure I've seen them before years ago, but I never use them. It's always interesting what others find invaluable that I try out and think "meh" afterward.
