But to your point, a soft keyboard is very different for conversational input that autocorrect and predictive typing excels at, and command entry and scripting where syntax is critical and you aren’t really typing in English or some other language.
I write and run plenty of small to medium Python scripts on my iPhone. It's an adjustment, but it's absolutely manageable.
Is that your preference?
Not particularly. I use it because it's always available.
But the limiting factor is way more the lack of real estate than it is typing.
I’d much rather have something with a dedicated keyboard and sturdy hinge.
