QWERTY is just one national layout among many. It’s not the “standard” by any meaningful metric. Why not let people use whatever layout they like?
well, that's actually how East Asian input usually work, so...
Right. You do it. So why can't we?
Frankly, I think it is about time Latin languages should get predictive typing assist on desktop. It's probably within possibility for Mythos/Fable class LLMs to one-shot it out of a tweet-length description and full code access for existing IMEs like Mozc.
