I’d be more convinced by this one if most typists hit the d and the m with the same hand. But since they’re struck with different hands, most of these could be the result of “timing” errors. I’m not a great typist, and I frequently do the same thing myself, even when there’s a letter in the middle—like that e between the d and m.
The most interesting example here is the first one, with the “redeemiation” spelling, but even that might be the result of a timing problem—“remeediation” gets at least 60 unique hits.
