It all depends what you are doing at the time, and whether you use a mouse at all. Users and use cases differ. If you must blather such nonsense, please at least do not pretend to speak for Emacs ("in Emacs...") when doing so. Emacs is not limited to any particular input mechanism, whether it be keyboard, mouse, touchpad, phone, *pad,... And that's a good thing.
