i also had this thought, but i realized the value in this is not necessarily understanding the code that you're typing but rather getting better at typing characters in context and in certain sequences. for instance, i realized that i am terrible at typing } and ], but i assume that's because i have an IDE that does autocomplete for those chars. other typing programs i've used are just transcribing sentences, but in programming there are so many other characters we use in the middle of typing things.
