the logic here doesn't work for me.

Don't use vi/emacs because someday I might only have nano/notepad

Don't use a computer because someday I might not have one

Don't use a refrigerator because sometime I might not have one.

Don't use a washing machine because someday I might not have one.

Don't use toilet because someday I might not have one

Don't use a shower because someday I might not have one.

Configs can be a 10x speed boost. The time spent getting familiar with a machine without, at least for me, is rare enough I can live with the few minutes of frustration. Otherwise, my configs are backed up so I can update the new machine to my preferences.
