When people type 70wpm andit it requires thier full attention, it seems intuitive that this is a bottleneck. I just don't believe that's the typical state of affairs for most devs. Most management, sure.
I'm not saying there aren't some code that get written that is braindead simple and have a lot of keystrokes (builders come to mind) but modern IDEs will generate them for you. We already had a plethora of deterministic code generation tools at our fingertips.
