  • It certainly looks more efficient, following the ETAOIN pattern, but it completely ruins commercial advertisements where they use words as a phone number.

  • Basically I agree. There are, however, many QWERTY phones without ABC. They display it on screen when to call. Thus, even with this EWQ layout, it's quite possible to call with ABC. The choice will depend on what's more important to users between remembering the word numbers easily and inputting words efficiently. The word numbers could even be dialed directly by entering their spells directly. It allows users to check numbers dialed before calling. However, it could still be confusing, though.
