"QWERTY was designed to add two things to typing: slowness and inefficiency. It was designed to be slow so people wouldn’t be able to type so fast that the heads stuck, and inefficient so that letters commonly used together would be as far as possible from each other, again reducing the chances of getting the heads stuck."

Bullshit!.. qwerty is designed to have the most commonly used letters in good reach for your hands.. or something like that..
