Whether you, like me, beleive that QAZWSX keyboards make far more sense, especially in a machine learning world, I think we all agree a layout designed to circumvent jamming typewriter keys doesn’t make sense in modern society on modern devices.

    You mean like the way sweeping swiping figures out the words? And what do you do when trying to type out a password? Does it revert to a normal keyboard or function like T9 keyboard with multiple presses to select the right character?

      I think with the advent of passkeys, this issue is largely mitigated. But for the most part, yes, reversion to the familiar makes sense, whether that’s QWERTY, T9 or simply disabling auto correct.
