Always: the more knowledge the better. At least for
knowledge that can be applied (skill or capability are
perhaps better words).

Are there really Emacs challenge competitions? I can't
say I'm attracted to that because though I always want
to do things with speed, I never want to be stressed,
with deadlines, people shouting and being frustrated,
etc. I'll save those juices for a real crisis (like a
fire or whatever). But it would be interesting to watch
if such an Emacs challenge has been recorded and made
available for example on YT.
