    the amount of effort it takes me to ignore a typo that I’ve noticed is far greater than what it takes to fix it

    however, seeking typos in a long passage is admite story

      The thing with swipe typing is that it is also touch typing, so you can tell immediately when you make a mistake, just like with a physical keyboard. So while typing this comment e.g., I only paused to look down to type “e.g.” because it involved the periods. Otherwise everything was done looking at the text itself, allowing me to catch errors immediately. 👍 No need to search.
