FWIW, I don't know re Knute's dd, but sometimes people with fine motor dysgraphia (my ds) have related challenges with typing - ds can type faster than he can use handwriting, but he is never going to be efficient at keyboarding, even when he uses word prediction software.

Definitely not true for many dysgraphics, but very much a challenge for some!
