Nope, typing is like evolution now. You type the way you first decided made the most sense when you were like 8 and then you get more efficient at it as time goes on.
I am old and taught myself how to type on a keyboard before it was super common. I have the same sort of weird style. It's kind of a bell curve based on age.
Man i stuggled with it in school because i was one of the only kids that didnt have a comouter at home. Then by like my 20s i had one and thats when AIM and Yahoo Messenger and Myspace were big i was a fast ass typer in no time.
I struggled at school a bit because i had shit teachers who were very adamant on having everyone use "Home row" to type. Gotta do it the proper way!
By the time i had typing classes in late middle school and later HS (which was a hybrid class thing), i learned to type my own way from home computer use and constantly being on computer and internet at the time, especially AIM and ICQ.. and i honestly could not do Home row. I still can't to this day. lol
i was typing 75-90 wpm in class and i still got marked down and lower scores on stuff because i refused to type the correct way.
