You can bet that its design is way better, consistent and well thought than Wayland implementations hacked by of people from all over the places.

He's talking about the fact the mouse can only issue one command per second (or so) at most. Using the keyboard, if you know your shortcuts, you can easily triple that. It's why there's no mouse support in Street Fighter or Tekken
In contrast, I have no use for shortcuts on the desktop, because they're hidden underneath all the windows - I'd have to minimise a bunch of windows (or use a keyboard shortcut) to reveal the desktop first. Shortcuts on panels are a little better, but panels don't have room for many of them, and that's still slower than just hitting a few keys...
