Obviously takes some adjustment, but after about a week of using it I can type just as fast as on a traditional layout and swap between the two as I please.

You really gain a lot from having a smaller spacebar and layers. For gaming it's pretty nice to have f-keys you can use without having to pick your fingers up from WASD. Having the number keys directly above movement keys also feels more natural to use. In addition moving backspace next to P feels more natural and easy to use.
