Anecdata alert: For what it's worth, I am relatively sure that the key factor in developing (and then avoiding) RSI for me at least is sitting posture. This may in turn be impacting the wrist posture when typing, but I've systematically realised that when starting to feel RSI that it's coincident with having started slouching or hunching at my desk (or using a different physical layout). Fixing that (and taking it easy for a bit) managed to stave off disaster. The other revelation has been that general stress levels massively impact one's posture; if I'm stressing about something the entire upper half of my body tenses up, causing me to hunch over the keyboard (and, almost without noticing it, type about 5x harder than normal). And this probably ends up being the root cause for me. Just mentioning it in case anyone else had failed to spot a stress -> tensing up -> bad posture -> RSI -> stress feedback loop...
