      I have hooks that reformat on write, so I use :w constantly. So :wq is easier.

        And it’s not like it actually matters, they do approximately the same thing anyhow (:wq will always update modification time where :x only updates it if the contents changed)

        If a joke about a text editor that doesn’t exactly have the most intuitive interface makes you feel like it’s gatekeeping, I really don’t know how to help you
