Yeah right, obsessed with shaving some µm from keyboards but then let's put laptop style "short travel keys" keyboards on a desk because it looks cool. And not get me started with using the same horizontal staggered layout that was necessary 200 years ago on typewriters but it makes absolutely no sense today.

The fun thing is I've seen "ortholinear" keyboards sold for kids because horizontal staggered layout is for adults...

P.S. in my personal experience vertical staggered should be the default layout

P.P.S. and yes bikeshedding
