I love swiping, but swiping mistypes are significantly harder to decipher in comparison to classic mistypes:
When you peck separate buttons, your mistype usually creates a distorted, but recognizable word and your brain is pretty good in filtering out that noise.
When you are sliding however, mistypes create a real, but completely different word, so you need to squint not at the word, but at the whole sentence - to restore the meaning.
I have not once in my life thought about if people reading a mistype would have an easier time if I’d use a different and much much slower typing method. Also I almost always read what I’ve typed before I send it, which in and of itself might make me pretty weird. But that also makes it much less of a valid consideration in the first place (in my pecific) case. It still happens of course, occasionally, but that in no way justifies the extra time spent to me. I also wouldn’t want anyone else to waste more time for the same “typage” just so I might have an easier time reading something in case of a mistype.

Is it a joke or a mistype? English isn’t my first language so I can’t really tell here.
