>Typing is hard to beat in terms of bandwidth / strain
We type only because we can't talk to computers (although it starts changing). Voice control would easily beat typing.

Keyboards are also much better than speech for making very precise inputs. You’ll be hard-pressed to invent a speech interface which outdoes vim (for instance) for efficiency at general text editing tasks, even if you have a general AI interpreting the speech commands. Even just for straight typing computer code, mathematical formulae, musical notes, poetry with precise constraints on punctuation & spelling & layout, or e.g. controlling a video game or CAD program, a keyboard is much more effective than speech. A keyboard input can also have real-time response to partial input, like autocomplete, etc.
Perhaps most importantly, typing on a keyboard doesn’t distract/leak the content of your typing to everyone in earshot.
