Yeah, but then you're stuck counting lines. Whereas with a mouse, you just click and drag exactly what you want.
"p (vs. right-click > 'Paste')"
This is more difficult if you've copied whole lines but want to paste inside a line or replace text with your paste.
I love me some vim, but I do think it's easy to think we're faster than we are. I wonder if I recorded myself and then watched it if I'd think I was as fast as I feel that I am.

I agree, but the case where I want to copy multiple lines and have the first line start in the middle of a line is very rare in the languages I use.

That's what Visual mode is for. Personally, I find pressing Shift-V then j a few times is usually easier for line selection than acquiring the left line-selection margin or finding the end of the text.
In these cases I wouldn't say it's faster as much as I would consistent and easier. I do find myself having to clean up slight mistakes more often with mousing than I do vim commands.
In India, the male worker doesn't have to spend his time. It's the wife/mother that does it. Even if the woman works, it's assumed she'll cook 3 hot meals a day.
