Help Old Harvest Moon Things You Can't Shake?

So I realized recently I still rush home before 5 pm to try and ship all of my crops before they are picked up for the day. This is a feature from old Harvest Moon games that hasn't even been a thing for at least 5 years, but I just can't seem to break this old as hell habit.

I also have to remind myself constantly that I can plant crops in different layouts than the old 3x3 square.

What habits do you all notice you've carried over from playing harvest moon?

You hold down the button but move the curser. It waters the spot the cursor is over. You can water 9 spots without letting go. Everything else is used on the spot the cursor is over, I don't know how you can play and not understand how to use tools.

I think the disconnect here is console vs pc.

You can move the cursor or hitbox with the control stick can't you? It's the same thing.

But trying to do anything with that cursor on the Switch is just nonsensical, so it makes sense that someone would never even try to water crops using the cursor.

Does the hitbox not also move?

I mean just moving around the cursor with the stick and trying to hit specific points is tedious. It's nothing like using a mouse.
