Whoa! It Cannot be my favorite shortcut? That's a very aggressive statement.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and they will determine what they consider their favorites.
Granted, rm is a very powerful command & I recommend everyone who's using it to fully understand what it does which I mention in my blog post.
It's one of my favorite shortcuts because when I delete stuff with it I know that it has been completely removed from my computer.

It's a bad practice to use rm — you're def entitled to your own opinion but be open to suggestions as well. You cannot always be right. Using rm is a bad practice. Things can go wrong and you can end up deleting your OS.
It is not bad practice to use rm. It is bad practice to use rm if you don't know what it does, but the same goes for running any command in the terminal.
The terminal is a very powerful tool & anything you run in it should be ran with a good understanding of what it is doing.
