A few years ago I was stuck between workman, norman and colemak.
I decided to go colemak for ease of transition.
Being a longtime qwerty typer, my hands came to favor a more left hand typing ratio.
I later realized colemak tends to be more right hand. My qwerty wpm rate went from avg 130 down to 80.
My hands feel more comfortable typing colemak for long durations compared to qwerty.
The placement of the letter H and E didn’t really bothered me. I’ve since picked up a modified version of colemak that fixes some of the short comings of colemak.
Maybe one day I’ll pick up workman due to having a more even left/right hand distribution.
