Just that I've known several people who suffered from RSI and several
people who can't touch-type and the two sets are disjoint.
A correlation between the two is expected (people who type a lot are
more likely to know how to touch-type), but the fact that the two sets
are actually disjoint is I think more than a coincidence.

If you look at people who don't touch-type (like me), you'll see their
hands move a lot, so their arms work more and their hands and fingers
work less.
