Swipe isn't a good fit for terminal input, which is the usecase for this keyboard.
Why not? Swiping is less error prone, might need a different dictionary, though, to better match common commands and other patterns.
Some of us don't use swipe, this is great for me

I actually think swipe user is a minority ? I have never seen a swipe user in my circle but given how much people talk about it online, it must be quite popular in the US at least.
I don't mean the App, I mean the action

150ms, not 500. Try it. Gboard already has this built in. Feels very snappy if you do it this way. And you don't give up swipe nor tapping.
You can create your own keyboard layouts in this app.

There is a numpad, quite nice. Ctrl key to bottom right.
The numbers should also be in a numpad layout, unfortunately common mistake even in custom keyboards
Also some keys in good central positions like sdf are surprising empty, could reduce the overload of other keys by shifting some symbols there
Wonder how convenient corner gestures are vs pure horizontal/vertical
