I have a work injury, acquired from 30+ years of coding :)
As a youngster, I read a lot and at great speed, but after I started coding my read speed dropped dramatically. Attention to detail while writing or reading code seems to have re-wired my brain for accuracy instead of speed ;)
What jumps at me in the article is not the misinterpretation of arms, which results in funny but somewhat "working" language, but rather "[..] hitting lier feet against stones" where the 'h' is interpreted as 'li'. That brought me to a full stop.
Also makes me think of "kerning" vs. "keming" :)
