Takes more brain cells to handwrite. I'd be interested in brain activity of qwerty vs dvorak keyboards, now there's a study

When handwritng you use some additional brain pathways to finely coordinate the hand. When typing you don’t need that but use a different one that learned the keyboard. I think using both is good to reinforce that knowledge.
