I will agree with the touch typing and also with the VIM (I'm actually still practicing both moving over from the beginner phase).
But the changing keyboard layout is something I could never agree with. Cuz like you said, it'll take a considerable amount of time to get used to and I don't only use one pc and sometimes I don't have access to any of those (being the personal or the work one).
So the first 2 skills are usable in pretty much any scenario and it's true that once we achieve a level of proficiency on both, writing code (or anything else) just flows naturally.
