That doesn’t sound much like playing a piano to me. Any song not intended for beginners will require the pianist to press multiple keys at once (called chording¹).
I think the parent was referring to typing at a steady tempo not typing with a single key at a time. I rarely type with tempo at a computer. It would be interesting (and challenging!) to try.
