You operate better in Emacs if you touch type, but you should learn to touch type if you work in an editor a lot

You rarely need to hold more than crtl, shift and a character, and you have ctrl and shift both sides of the keyboard so it's easy

Meta is toggled in the default configuration tap it then do whatever key combinations.

Ctrl+g cancels partly complete commands

I dunno now I'm intrigued to check out emacs. Somehow I learned all the complex finger-ballet to operate Blender mostly by keyboard shortcuts as intended, so maybe that'll soften the learning curve? :D
