As a developer I object to your assumption that I need a mouse to do my job. The only thing I need a mouse for is outlook and I'd definitely be more productive without it.
This is my imposter syndrome.
I'm a senior engineer now and I'm a big mouse user. It's more intuitive for me. My productivity is certainly not bottlenecking on how fast my hands move on the keyboard. .
My productivity is bottlenecked by the number of meetings I have to attend, random slack messages that need to be responded to, and distractions IRL.
Nah fuck the haters, the keyboard-only workflow may be technically more productive, just like a Dvorak is better than a QWERTY, but what matters is your output and your quality.
People will spend hours learning things that save them seconds.
