you've bitten the bullet. Nice. Many people wouldn't. Hard to force
down their throat. It's been 30 years. Insane amount of preaching as

if emacs adopts ZXCV keys, the one major obstacle to emacs would be
gone. The bonus is, emacs operation become more efficient for free if
the emacs's current C-x and C-c gets a more ergonomic key.
