I have 10 years' of muscle memory for on-screen keyboards, and I still find them absolutely painful to use for anything other than a few words. When sending text messages, I use voice transcription (with the awkward "exclamation point", "newline", etc.).
If I were to use this, I'd set it up on some surface and just 2-finger type it like old-timey authors did on their typewriters.
And, FWIW, 20 years ago I jerry-rigged together a few gender benders and a null modem adapter so I could use my Palm Pilot to interface with VT100 terminals. Using Grafiti to send control characters and navigate TUIs was... interesting.
It was not that I could type faster (a swipe style onscreen keyboard is faster than all non full QWERTY keyboards IMHO) but that when I was writing a lot, long text or terminal command it was much more comfortable.
Tactile keys allow me to build a stronger muscle memory than zero-feedback touchscreens will ever let me.
