You think typing skills are as essential to being a productive, and by productive I mean creating wealth and value, not lines of code, a productive developer as dribbling is to being a good basketball player?

A programmer, by practicing his trade diligently, will in high likelihood grow in his typing proficiency and become faster, especially if he is spending much of his time developing. Also, writing specs and comments take a lot of text as well.
