I don't dispute that whatsoever. Many of my best swimmers were great pianists and cello players. I encourage them to pick up playing the piano or a stringed instrument because it helps swimmers' dexterity and feel for the water as it sensitizes the fine motor skills of the hand. Many other positives as well.

I grew up with a kid that had cancer as a baby which rendered him legally blind and deaf. Not all the way, but definitely couldn't drive a car. Anyway, he learned brail as a child. fast forward to when we were in college... decides he wants to learn guitar. Guess what...kid was a savant. Could fly across a fret board in what seemed like days of practice. He literally was a prodigy and I think it all stems back to having to learn to read with his fingers as a youngster.
