Everyone works differently - some write in plain text editors and get by happily enough. I do understand about breaking old habits - in my software development work I have to switch between various programming languages and the fingers keep trying to type whatever it was they were doing last.
If you can switch to using styles I believe you will eventually find the pay-off (for the reasons I've already given), but I wouldn't let it stress you out too far. Ultimately it comes down to doing what works for you - but you won't know if something works until you give it a reasonable chance. Good luck.
