Here's an explanation from Chuck Olson  -  WB9KZY of  Jackson Harbor Press
about Mode A / Mode B. File attached.

*I use Mode A *and I use a genuine Curtis keyer chip - like MFJ has in some
of their keyers.

Other manufacturers who manufactured Mode A did it incorrectly and you can
complete a character and still make an error.

In correct Mode A once a character is sent and you let go, there's no extra
dot or dash.  That's the way I want it.

*I use Mode A and I recommend it because it causes fewer errors if your
timing is off.*
