The issue isn't entering the dice.  It's entering the move.

Entering the move could be entered with a single click (or hitting
enter) when the play is evaluated as best.   Clicking 3, Clicking 1,
Hitting Enter (or typing "3 1 Enter Enter") is easer than typing 
"3 1 Enter 5 5 Enter" or something like that.
