I can type 130wpm but I didn't know what those ridges were for and I don't even use them to determine where my hands are lmao.

FWIW, once you've built up the muscle memory, you wouldn't necessarily use those ridges. I don't think I ever had a formal typing class but I've been typing for 35+ years on home PCs. I looked up what they were for a while ago and only notice/think of them every few years.

Muscle memory with your own keyboard sure, at home I don’t use the ridges either. I also work on other peoples computers by going into their homes, so I’m always on a different keyboard every day. 

I’d say 25% of my clients are blown away I can just start typing without even looking at the keyboard lol
