I never noticed myself doing it either. But after learning of Emacs (and MacOS) "transpose" shortcut C-t (aka Control-T on macs), I find I use it about once every 1-2 weeks.
It's not even faster than deleting the word and re-typing it, no. It's just funny.
I did not know about transpose but I am now fully convinced that Emacs shortcuts can be art.
Really, I tried it out and giggled out loud. Now how do I go about sharing this joke with my friends? "It all started in 1976... let me tell you about bucky bits."
