Why isn't the location of a letter commonly struck twice only a problem when the finger used to strike the letter is also used for preceding and following letters? E.g. 'stopping' in Workman has right ring finger hit all of 'opp' which, yes, isn't great, but that's the only example I can think of - *opp* words.

Putting P next to a vowel cluster does nothing for rolls. It makes more sense to swap to the other side of the board so while you are dealing with whatever P is doing, your other hand is teeing up the rolling keys that will start after P. For instance: application. In Canaria your roll would look like this, with the keys being rolled in [brackets] opp[ortun][ity] Or, if you're slower: opp[or][tuni][ty]
