Terrific account, and your description of dyspraxia was enlightening. Human wiring does sometimes not quite go right, and I am close to two who have dyslexia and dysgraphia. With those, some find workarounds — for example, finding jobs where those physical skills are not much used and/or finding ways to accommodate the difficulties (e.g., audiobooks for dyslexics and speech-to-text for dysgraphics).

I've read that dysgraphics also often choose professions where the important thing is person-to-person communication, like sales or medicine. Apparently, it is not unusual for doctors to be dysgraphic — the thing about the illegibility of doctors' handwriting indicates that — and medical transcription services date way back, since those allow doctors to dictate rather than write their notes.

At any rate, your article was highly interesting, and I very much resonated with your interest in shaving — see https://leisureguy.wordpress.com/category/shaving/
