InDesign is a tool used by skilled craftspeople who want to work as efficiently as possible to meet tough production schedules, or maximize their profits on a bidded job. So speed is of the essence. Knowing keyboard shortcuts for things you do often greatly increases speed and efficiency in InDesign, and almost every function of InDesign is reachble through a keyboard shortcut. Starting out, you can't be expected to know these shortcuts, and I doubt if anybody knows all of them by heart, but if your on a job that calls for, say, creating a glossary of key terms in a 300 page textbook, it behoves you to learn whatever keyboard shortcuts you can to make it go faster.
