I frequently have times when I'm doing things like "writing articles on what's stopping me from coding" and the like. But for me, when I'm on, I'm ON, and in those periods, being able to put code together reliably and quickly is of utmost importance.

Even with the macros and shortcuts he shows, I still would be slower using a system like that. When I'm typing in a good editor, I can blast out code VERY quickly, and when I've typed it, I KNOW it's what I meant. When he says it, he has to stop and look to ensure the code matches what he said.

Yes, he can say a phrase like "camel someVariableName" quickly, and sometimes it Just Works, but when it doesn't, he has to back up and say it again. That kind of distraction can throw me off my train of thought, and the damage to my productivity would be profound.

That said, it still IS great for anyone with an RSI as an alternate way to enter code. I just don't buy the "it could be better even for people who don't need it" argument. Especially with his claim that I would need to abandon my modern editor with awesome language support for one of those relics that relies on CTAGS.
