Keyboard layout family tree
Nice! This is pretty cool to see visually. You may want to add ASERT to the QWERTY-like list (https://github.com/AlternateKeyboard/ASERT). Also, isn’t the CarpalX layout QWKRFY? (http://mkweb.bcgsc.ca/carpalx/?partial_optimization)

How good would the default layout (currently qwerty) have had to be for you to not switch?

Dunno. Recently I've been tinkering with a layout optimization tool (from the producer of the MTGAP layout). I realized that even the slightest change in parameters seem to result in a different layout. They all have impressive stats on paper, and they have some similarities (like vowels tend to be grouped on one side); but still they are quite different. Unless we come up with a concrete model of typing behavior, which I believe is immensely difficult, it doesn't matter how optimized your layout is. It is probably unoptimized in some yet unknown aspect of typing.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ASERT and Typing you can also consider the following projects:
Workman - Workman keyboard layout
ASETG - ASETG Keyboard Layout
kb-layout-evaluation - Evaluate ergonomic keyboard layouts over multiple languages
