I did this at 12 years old back in the 90s. Never lost my ability to type qwerty, either. Completely worth it.
I never managed to touch type on qwerty, so I guess I had nothing to lose in that sense.
I made the change in my late 20s, just before I started writing my PhD thesis. I figured if I was going to do a lot of writing, I might as well make it as efficient as possible.
