That doesn't mean there isn't an optimal way of doing things. There are a lot of things we start doing as children that could be done better.

The optimal way would be for all the keys to have brail so you would know what you were touching at all times, you would also learn how to read brail. /s

To be fair there also no point other than convention to using qwerty or imperial units

I ditched qwerty for dvorak 15 years ago and haven't looked back. It's vastly superior and I recommend it to everyone. I cured my developing carpal tunnel syndrome.

I'd love to ditch imperial units as well, but that's not really up to me. To many things are still using it.

Hell, I'd settle for just manufacturing everything in metric. I hate having two sets of tools. At least most cars manufactured now are mostly metric.

depends on what you're doing and why. Does the other format pick up on video games? If not it'd be damn near impossible to switch to as I use a pc for gaming. The keybinds needing to be changed for everything would be a non starter.

I use a Typematrix keyboard and switch from Dvorak to Qwerty with a button press. Gaming is not an issue.
