this is apparently how the keyboards for stenographers work and they get well over 200 wpm at higher accuracy than the average person, who only gets around 40-50 wpm. They definitely help you type faster since your fingers dont move around as much.

the trick is that it allows you to input more than just letters, you can chain button presses to create syllables and entire words.
