To each his or her own. However, if one person doesn’t like it, that doesn’t imply or infer it’s unusable for the blind and that any such claims should be made to Apple.

Like with anything else, if you use it long enough, it becomes second nature, and I tend to be someone who adapts to those kinds of things anyway.
