    It’s odd to call middle click to paste a dumpster fire when the Windows console will use a modal behaviour for right click - by default it’s paste (and there are certain situations where you can only reliably paste with right click), unless you have text selected, then copy that text (and deselect it). By comparison middle click is pretty damn predictable.

    I wonder however how much of the complaints come from laptop users with oversized touchpads who are frustrated by accidental clicks while typing. But it’d be odd that only middle click is singled out then.
