Stay tuned, a new study is coming with another revelation: you aren't getting faster by using Vim when you are learning it.

My previous employer didn't even allow me to use Vim until I learned it properly so it wouldn't affect my productivity. Why would using a cursor automatically make you better at something if it's just new to you and you are already an elite programmer according to this study?

How did you measure this? Was the conslusion of your studies that typing/editing speed was the real bottlekneck for a SWE becoming 10x?
