Yes, contracted braille works as well as 6 dot braille. I always use 6 dot braille because I am now philosophically apposed to contracted braille being the default. Now that we have electronic braille, braille is the same size as print in electronic form. And, blind people who have always used contracted braille tend to be worse spellers when compared with their sighted peers.
