I don't think a typo depends on proximity of right and wrong keys. The last word of this definition seems to fit:
- Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (26 May 2007) :
typographical error typo
(typo) An error while inputting text via keyboard, made despite the fact that the user knows exactly what to type in. This usually results from the operator's inexperience at keyboarding, rushing, not paying attention, or carelessness.
But I'd still argue that reduced dexterity can lead to carelessness.
