Thanks to all who responded. I think I'll adopt a 'non-purist' attitude and
use C-N, C-P etc. when convenient and arrow keys otherwise. Going to
extreme lengths to avoid using the arrow keys could become a distraction.
Perhaps an expert can type slightly faster using C-N etc., but much of my
time in front of a keyboard is in any case spent thinking, so any increase
in typing speed would be marginal.
