1. Vector Drawing

    [shift+c], convert points from curve to straight

    [A], go to white point selection arrow

    [cmd+J], join two endpoints

    [C], cut a line segment

    [+], add a point

    [-], subtract a point

    [P], go to pen tool

    and countless other keyboard shortcuts that I don’t know.

    Conclusion: Illustrator should just be able to read my mind.
