True. I often times find myself typing out the command rather than using some obscure key sequence like C-c C-v n (case in point: https://orgmode.org/manual/Key-bindings-and-Useful-Functions...). Since Emacs does tab completion for the command name too, I personally find that a better UX than using the "shortcut" (if I can remember it at all).
I tend to use search for infrequently used stuff and stuff I'm just trying to learn for the first time, then if I find myself using it several times in a session I look up the keybind to start practicing that. If it sticks, it sticks, and if it doesn't... the search functionality is great!
