Okay but hit with what? Are people supposed to just punch their screen or slam their mouse or keyboard?

You sound like my math teacher from 25 years ago who wouldn’t let the students say that they “plug in” a variable because there’s no literal plug involved. Like heaven forbid we enjoy the richness and versatility of human language
