I use it for both....


Once when typing in vim i was trying to type the number 8 and I I hit it a few times (the console was lagging bad) so i bashed it a good number of times, I then realized I wasn't in insert mode. anyways I quickly got to the correct mode and typed in my 8 and shift ZZ quickly to save and exit. Well the 8's I was pushing got interpreted into repeat values I managed to overwrite the entire source code with 8's and save and exit. To make matters worse it wasin't in insert mode but overwrite mode. Luckily I hadn't been working very long and was able to recover very quickly.
