Maybe for you. For me the issue is whether the menu pops up under the mouse
or halfway across the room.

That's two differences. You're confusing where the menus come up (the menu
bar or under the mouse) with the contents of the menus.

That's another dimension still. You can have command keys no matter where the
menus come up.
