I’m surprised not to see a discussion of the biggest drawback: despite being fewer characters, “uv” is harder to type than “pip”. It requires two different hands to participate and a longer reach with my left index finger. pip is convenient – just a little rattle off with my right hand.

I'm not convinced. "pip" uses one's weaker ring finger; "v" is adjacent to "f"; and alternating hands should be easier for a touch typist.
