Okay I mean that was a bit harsh of me. Maybe I just haven't given the insert key a chance. 😛 It can be mapped to other things right?

you can do that, its the magic of ✨user choice✨

A useless key I sometimes hit by accident and then start to panic as editing goes apeshit.

also the delete key amirite?

Yes! THis boomer. Generally shift + ins used for pasting into a git bash terminal on windows

I use it dozens of times a day :o). The CUA compliant cut, copy, and paste keyboard shortcuts rely on it: Cut: shift + delete Copy: ctrl + insert Paste: shift + insert (I learned these long before the more traditional Ctrl+X, C, V.)
