I’d say it’s got less to do with making money off the status quo, and more to do with lack of money in any of the alternatives. Most people can’t type fast enough for extra layout efficiency to matter, and even fewer people care.

Apparently even fewer regularly alternate between formats.

Yeah. It’s one of those things where while a different solution is technically better, the benefit doesn’t come close to outweighing the effort of changing for the overwhelming majority of people. And so the status quo remains.

It’s funny, because they try so hard to get us to bypass keyboards all together but refuse to improve keyboards.
