Plus, I’m a programmer and type <>, (), {},
and [] enough that I have them bound to non-shift keys. So even if we were counting keystrokes, it’d still be fewer than three on my keyboard.
What, are you saying we’re counting one-time configuration costs? If so, the hundred or so configuration clicks are still utterly dwarfed by the tens of thousands of saved keystrokes. Statistical noise.
Anyway, I ruined the joke by correcting the grammar. “Less than 3” is “<3”, whether it took a hundred keystrokes to type or not. “Fewer than three” breaks the joke.
No the shift key counts too, it takes 2 to make the ‘<‘ plus one more for ‘3’.
Characters, not keystrokes

You also have to include how many mouse clicks/keys you used yo bind them to non-shift keys
