You can exclude from your TODO list all entris with a STYLE propert
equal `habit'.

That's a much better reason.

I'd try putting habits in a separate file with its own set of TODO
kewords defined in a line beginning with `#+SEQ_TODO'. You can also try
defining a different DONE keyword for habits together with HABIT and use
it as a TODO keyword sequence as described here.

I am sure someone with more moxie and bigger mojo than me (at least for
now i.e. 00:08 CEST) could come up with a function you could add to
org-after-todo-state-change-hook that does exactly what you want.
