I tried this a few years back and really wanted it to work. Ended up ditching it though. My foot is too slow.

It seems like riding a bicycle or typing on a new keyboard. At some point, it becomes natural.

On a side note, I wonder since USB input is polled whether or not it would make sense to look for a toggle in the inputs rather than using two switches.
