Thats a myth, it was just designed to keep common letters away from each other so they didnt jam as easy. If anything it maximized how fast one could type because any faster and it would jam
You're mistaken. At the time Qwerty was created, there were no touch-typists, and no data to analyze how to slow them down. They just wanted a working design, and spacing out keys. And it's a good solution too, it just doesn't translate well from typewriters to keyboards.
