So, yes, I CAN say it's better. Not to mention my comparison is against a gamepad. Not a standalone keyboard. Keyboard keys are all on/off, there's no.... precision to movement and such with a keyboard. Even a Gamepad is better for movement than a keyboard alone.
No. You. Cant lol.

First of all precision with a mouse is entirely dependent on the user. I thought we were leaving player skill out of the discussion.

Secondly an MMO does not require aiming..only on/off targetting. Hitting a button is faster and does not miss. Ever. Moving and clicking is clearly inferior to hitting a button. Mouse is only good where aiming is required...like an fps.

Thirdly, regardless of how many buttons your mouse has, if you are using it to point and click it is inferior.

Finally, a gamepad is superior to a mouse for the same reasons. Buttons are faster than point and click. They never miss. They can do everything a mouse can +more.
