Using uncontracted braille does alleviate the problem. But (1) by using uncontracted braille you to at least some extent lessen the benefit of a six-key (eight actually) keyboard, and (2) if you are used to writing in grade two on a braille keyboard it takes some thought to write all uncontracted braille. If I were to decide to write in uncontracted braille a great deal of the time, I would probably want to use my non-braille bluetooth keyboard to write. But these comments just reflect my preferences and writing grade one may be a good choice for some. I'll probably continue to try to write in grade 2 if I want to type on the Perkins-style keyboard.
