Ah, so I'm flaming while you are providing a well-reasoned and articulate argument? Glad to know the difference.
In any case, you should be very familiar with the fact that writing emails and learning code are two vastly different activities that require vastly different amounts of concentration and time. I'm responding to email while doing other things - were I to replace the time spent writing email with learning git's internals, I would be pulled away so frequently that I would end up not having learned anything. Therefore, I write emails now, and I leave learning git's internals until later, when I have the undisturbed time to devote.
