Hmmm! I don't think incompetent typing skills are a good
argument to introduce. Most people in fact will type
the shifted {} faster. I can quite believe that some
would type it slower (for instance if they do not have
finger memory of where the curly keys are), but in any
case speed of typing is a 100% irrelevant argument when
it comes to discussingt the design of Ada.
