The objections to the Colemak layout seem kind of bogus to me. I use Colemak and none of these things are issues for me at all. >Typing ‘HE’ forced the hand to make a very unnatural sideways twisting motion from the wrist and then back again. Really? I just extend my right index finger half an inch to the left and type the E — my wrist doesn't twist or move at all (at least not perceptibly). >Try typing “The” with the T capitalized on Colemak and hopefully you’ll see what I mean. Your right hand will move somewhat like this: you swing to the right to get the SHIFT key with your pinky, then you swing back to the left to get the letter ‘H’, and then you move to the right again to get the letter ‘E’. That makes no sense at all. Why in the world would you use the right shift key for this? I just extend my left pinky a little bit to hold down the left shift key while I type the T. >I really wanted Colemak to work however I can’t live with the H-E movement and having to reach for D and H often. There's hardly any movement or reaching required to type D and H. You're just moving your index finger a fraction of an inch to the side. The rest of your fingers and your hands don't move at all. I can't see anything here that would motivate me to ditch Colemak.
