Traditional vs Directional Form Filling

The direction on which to use should be base on the number of steps intended to complete the task (assuming all fields are required*). If it takes less then 5 steps, then why not focus?

Traditional UX:
- Bringing familiarity of physical form filling to digital.
- The deficient digital adaptation is amplified on small screens where the keyboard blocks the visual of other fields.

Directional UX:
- Anchoring on Hick's Law, user needs are further studied and understood.
- Unnecessary options are filtered and users are directed to complete the intended task with minimal steps.
- Reducing an additional click to bring up the keyboard.
