That is a feature, not a bug. It vastly reduces the chance of RSI,

It's premature to draw that conclusion as data on injury from repetitive
invisible key searching isn't in yet and studies of secondary effects, such
as frustration hurling of the invisible keyboard through windows, are in
the early stage.

On the other side, it's now admitted that preliminary reports of people
injured by hurled invisible keyboards were flawed due to an inability to
definitively identify the invisible object responsible. In addition, the
data was corrupted by "fake hurling" (person pretends to hurl), "virtual
hurling" (person hurled but missed when grabbing the invisible keyboard,
similar to not finding the power on key, so no physical object was actually
in play), and "psychosomatic hurling" (person claims injury when no object
was hurled); now referred to as KH, VH, and PH syndrome, respectively, with
KH using K, for "fake," being necessary to avoid confusion with the primary
"frustration hurling" syndrome designation of "FH."


LOL,
Don't discount the effects of IHS, and IP.

Keyboards hitting Invisible People or those invisible people
becoming Invisible Human Shields to protect our esteemed
leaders.
