The only time that I call beginning-of-buffer
is when I want to visit the file header, which isn’t very often. The rest of the time I only want to go up to where the code begins, or at least close to it. That is the logical beginning of the buffer. Another example is going to the beginning of a magit-status

Store Your Motorcycle Or Car In A Protective Bubble
Clean, dry and easy storage of your motorcycle or car (or anything) in a plastic air bubble ?. Gosh, that sounds like a sales pitch but I am totally in love with this. First I’ll save up for the bubble, then after that the Caterham.
