My fingers mostly win. My fingers don't like change. I still only use left shift because on keypunch machines right shift meant something different. I still am annoyed that I had to change habits when changing from Sun keyboards to PC keyboards. And fn-vs-ctrl placement on ThinkPads vs other notebooks vs desktops.
