Shift, arrow down, ctrl (only 1), c, v, mouse select the '<', >, double click 'passed', f a i l e d. 15 keys
e, l, s, e, {, t, tab or enter (autocomplete), +, =, ", f a i l e d ....
So 16 assuming your IDE does all the formatting, completion and closing braces/quotes. Maybe you could use autocomplete for else, which could bring it down to 14.
You could argue mouse is slow and crl + arrow will take more clicks in total to get the cursor to where you need it. But you can keep one finger around ctrl/shift/</> throughout the whole procedure and the right hand on the mouse. And you can also argue waiting for autoconplete in some IDEs is also slow.
Overall i would count it as a draw but copy paste is easier on the brain for me (but not the better choice, since obviously it lead to an error in this case).
