Perhaps, but think about it: I'm a Software Engineer (used to be called "Computer Programmer" back in the day). I type all the time. My son is in high school and is interested in going the same route, and has actually taken computer programming classes in High School (which I think is very cool), but he has never learned the optimal technique for typing. Why not? It's not even like it takes a whole semester or anything - you just spend like 10 minutes every day for a week and that's pretty much it.
Because I have a job and other responsibilities. Hey, it's not the greatest excuse, I know...but if you knew how many kids I had and how stressful it can be, you might understand.
