Kawamiya's "ASerty" means that AZERTYUIOP on French keyboard could be HOME ROW..
Kawamiya and the fellows proposed ASERTYUIOP as to be home row.

This is "ASerty" layout which Kawamiya & fellows proposed.
Cut at only one slice into two pieces of upper and middle (normal home) rows of alphabet-keys each
QWERYTYUIOP cut in two pieces QW- -ERTYUIOP
ASDFGHJKL cut in two pieces AS- -DFGHJKL
and exchange right sides of each
Is there any jamming picture of up-strike machine like S&G, which had photoed during actual typing?
That should be the picture which should be suit to explain the real jamming lemma which annoyed Sholes and the bands during development of typewriter.
The picture which is now on the article of Typebar of Wikipedia ,
is not suit for this purpose.
This picture should be done photo purposely and artificially. And the worst, of front-strike.

The QWERTY layout had nothing to do with operator efficiency,
while the DHIATENSOR and "scientific" layouts claimed to.

On Brickensderfer machine, the center of the row and the lower row is the most less energy saving key position for the operator.
Outer from the center line to right or left, you must turn the type-wheel of the machine farther more by pushing a key.
Higher from the bottom row to the upper, you must lift the type-wheel farther more by pushing the shift key.
So, this is the destiny for the Brick-machine, to layout along by frequency not for human-lateral-writing but for the reason of machine's.
I think we can make worse key layouts to put keys for high frequency letters to outer from home row or home position.
To make red all of four corners..
To make blue home position and home row..
Cool..

I will show you colored DHIATENSOR by typing frequency of each key.

Blickensderfer's is too much focused on the lowest row and the center.
On Brickensderfer machine, the center of the row and the lower row is the most less energy saving key position for the operator.
Outer from the center line to right or left, you must turn the type-wheel of the machine farther more by pushing each key.
Higher from the bottom row to the upper, you must lift the type-wheel farther more by pushing the high row key.
And those key strokes might take more time if the key farther from the bottom or from the center.
So, this is the destiny for the Brick-machine, to layout along by frequency not for human-lateral-writing but for the reason of machine's.
----------------
I colored keyboards by the letter frequency along Wikipedia.
Please compare of each, QWERTY, Dvorak, ASerty.
http://qwerty-history.g.hatena.ne.jp/raycy/20120518/1337319269
-----------------
By these ways, we might get worse layouts easily to put away the high frequency keys colored in red to farther to the four of corners, and the low frequency keys colored in blue to put on home-position or home-row.

Dear Mr. Edison :-
I had your perforatttt? (a ? b)
teleegraphed toeler, and seud you
the result. At low speed ( and
about 300 words per minute)
the writers cassue pret well,
but even then, the dashes ?
too short for ?? dots.

Please explain to Mr. Harrington that you can make a note form printer at short notice, and that (working print a type wheel) it must print faster & much better than can possibly be done by the levers or arms plan of Sholes. My idea is that it is a decided object for us to have the control of the Sholes machine, provided it costs little or nothing--but if not, not.--and of course, relying upon your inventive head to work us through when and as may be necessary. -- D. H. Craig to Edison, a letter dated January 31, 1871.
