Due to the way that I hold the keyboard [1], I find it difficult to

there a way to configure i to switch to Insert mode as it normally
does, but to have ii act as hi, and [n]i act as [n-1]hi? I l know that
I can configure each sequence manually, but if there exists a way to
define a function or such then I would love to know.
While an odd request, is there something I'm missing about just doing
:nnoremap ii hi
It works with prefixed counts, allows you to keep insert-mode
(though you either have to type a character in insert mode that
*isn't* "i" or wait for 'timeoutlen' to see the results of it)
An outside-the-box solution might be to investigate other
horizontal movements that don't involve H. I almost never use
h/l for left/right movement, preferring instead to use f/F/t/T,
or w/W/b/B/e/E, or %/(/) type movements. It's rare that I need
to move only one or two characters left/right, especially if that
doesn't land me on a targetable boundary.
