User:NeonStarX/rule of typos

Fixing a typographical error usually takes at least as much effort as typing the entire word again.

The later the typo is noticed, the more effort it takes to fix it. If it is the last word, it can be erased with CTRL+Backspace. But if it is farther behind, one needs to navigate there using either cursor or arrow keys. On touch screens, the difficulty is hitting the exact position of the typo. Otherwise, one needs to tap until the cursor is there, or erase and retype characters around the typo as well.
