   I must be a genius, or is it really that the level has
   dropped as much as it is told to have dropped?

I think people express themselves less subtly these days.

 i                   =>  everyone
 feel uncomfortable  =>  hates
 w/ new keybindings  =>  emacs

There is a larger pressure to express stridently, too.

That's OK -- in a few years, newbies will have forgotten
what a "keyboard" is altogether as Emacs 42 tracks eyebrow
twitches and nose flairs.  Should make for a more varied
set of complaints, one hopes... :-D
