I have no idea why the he Y and Z are changed for English vs Deutsche
speakers.  I was referring to the Dvorak layout among one such
alternative to the standard QWERTY layout.  Supposedly it is a more
natural and efficient layout, but backward compatibility with the steam
age has meant that we are likely stuck with the QWERTY layout for the
foreseeable future.  This does not make it the better or more efficient
choice, it is merely the layout in use.
