Not saying that Magit isn't worth it (never used it), but it's not a fair comparison. I don't `git commit --amend --no-edit`: I `git amend` to edit the last commit, `git amend HASH` to edit any commit, `git amend -i` to pick a commit to edit in a searchable list with preview of their content.
That's 9 characters plus the effort of finding and copy/pasting the hash. With magit it's two characters and you just focus on the hash in question.

That's cool! Still a lot more typing than with Magit, which also has a searchable list with content previews ;)
I'm happy that you've found ways to optimize your workflow, but seriously, Magit is still faster.
That's how your argumentation sounds to me.
