Are you saying that the bottleneck in software development is typing in text on a keyboard? If so, I thoroughly disagree. In my experience, inputting text is a small factor in development cost, with the main cost being research (figuring out what to type in), and debugging (figuring out why something you typed in doesn’t work as you thought it would).
