Huh. I wouldn't have said that. "Accustomed" is more formal, but "used to" 
is just fine I think.  Sometimes one can go too far in being formal, to the 
point where one starts saying "utilize" instead of "use" even when it means 
the wrong thing, etc.

   Forget "focus follows mouse." When do
   I get "focus follows gaze"?
