When you get up into the 200 wpm range doesn’t matter how the keyboards are laid out ~ the bending and adjustments only work for the amateurs!
Hey, I never said I was a pro, lol.
That said, I honestly think it would be best for kids to learn to type, as early as possible, and using that method, would help them develop better typing skills, and fewer typos, with more speed. The QWERTY method, was never an efficient method to begin with (it was designed to sell typewriters, not make better typists), and should have been phased out years ago, only due to laziness is it still the dominant system.
