Using menus is for anyone who wishes and/or likes to do so,
and as mentioned elsewhere, they do have the great advantage
of allowing for learning by discovery (this is especially true
if you use Gnus).

I don't use them myself, not because of a fear of being
labeled, and certainly not because I already know everything
(I prove daily that I'm forever learning). I don't use menus
because for me they get in the way by taking up screen space,
being distracting, and generally requiring reaching for the
mouse. But my use case is not necessarily anyone else's.
