Thats a good point! I'll have a better description by the next release.

I'm conflicted about keypress count because I really want the focus to be about speed. VimGolf does a great job of covering those types of puzzles/scenarios. The differentiator here is speed. I'm hoping that I'll be able to do some sort of data analysis on key strokes. An interesting finding might be that www is faster than f<a character>.

One of my hypothesis was that searching with 'f' and 'F' is not as efficient as simply navigating with more commong motions like w, e, h, j etc. I've already been proved wrong, Although, I should phrase it like "many top performers use 'f' and 'F'." Which would suggest that they might be fast, or using them isn't too much of a detriment
