If you're not looking at the keys and not slowing down to think about how you're doing it, I'm inclined to call it "touch typing" even if it doesn't fit the exact, formally-taught, "correct" touch-typing method.
I know I'm not using the "right" fingers for some keys on the top and bottom rows. I only got almost halfway through the self-teaching book before I decided I was fast enough. (Actually, I thought I was "fast enough for now" and planned to go back and learn the rest properly later. I never got around to it, but my mother says I type faster than she does (on a computer at least) and estimates my speed on the 90+wpm range. I am, of course, significantly slower when I don't have a backspace key to immediately correct mistakes I feel my fingers make, so yeah, I'm slower on a typewriter.)
I thought the various typewriter correction technologies were wonderfully clever ... until I tried to use each of them and discovered none of them quite lived up to their billing. The correction paper seemed the least painful of them, but when it didn't line up ... argh.
