I merely thought if someone was going to spend a lot of time in emacs, the interface that emacspeak uses might be easier to use. I didn't mean it as a definite "you must use emacspeak" only as a "you should possibly use emacspeak" if you were going to say spend 80% of your computing time under emacs.
