Hey, I do that! :D It's much easier to hold a calculator and
poke at the keys than it is to move a mouse around...

and not have to always be seated.

Not only that but there are still times when a well trained 10-key operator can figure out something much faster than someone trying to
use the numeric keypad on a PC.
It's based on the concept of using the right tool for the job, even if
a newer tool exists that is slower.
