I’d be surprised if typing speed was a big factor explaining differences in how much different researchers produce, or in their ability to produce certain types of output. (But of course, that claim is pretty vague—how surprised would I be? What do I mean by “big factor?”)
But I just did a typing test, and got 92wpm (with “medium” words, and 1 typo), which is apparently high. So perhaps I’m just taking that for granted and not recognising how a slower typing speed could’ve limited me. Hard to say.
