It has to be. Morse code is a lot slower than a qwerty keyboard.
Interesting though, qwerty was designed to slow typing down so the old mechanical typewriters would not jam.
Interesting.
On a side note, I think it was Jay Leno who had the worlds fastest texters VS Morse code ham operators, and all sent the same message.
The Morse code hams won the speed contest.
I know I can type 100 words a minute. I remember reading that 35 wpm is high speed for a morse code operator.
But that’s with a standard keyboard, sitting at a computer. On an iPhone I’m not very fast at all, and I have to look at what I’m typing (unlike on the keyboard which I can look away from and even hold a short conversation while continuing to type, depending on what I’m typing about).
So for iPhone users, taking notes on the fly, maybe morse code is faster.
Actually - not true -when it is a thumb-sized keyboard! There was a competition between two ham operators and someone texting... the Hams won!
