Once a new version of my favorite file manager came out with remapped key bindings. I can't even remember the name of it now. But my own anger was memorable as totally out of proportion even when I was feeling it. My investment in muscle memory had been trashed! I thought several evil thoughts before calming down. So while it sounds trivial I can understand why the reaction to the crime of Betrayal of Muscle Memory has escalated to "fork you".

It happens with all interfaces, but people look to stuff like emacs and vim to be better than that
