Excerpt from The Uniform Type Question: An Examination of the Report of the Uniform Type Committee of June, 1913

Here let it be noted that while all the type suggested by blind men followed Roman forms, the inventor of point type having no relation to Roman forms, was a seeing man, Charles Barbier.

These references are very instructive; for instance, they show the mental attitude of highly intelligent men - both seeing and blind. It appears also that all progressive ideas and designs have been the result of individual interest and initiative.
