Do you mean ANSI vs ISO? I am under the impression that once you produce an ISO keyboard (e.g. with big enter key) any layout just means different key cap prints and telling the software about it. If they don’t even support ISO in the first place, there is no path for international layouts afaik.

Interesting, I never realised that non US/ANSI keyboards are all ISO. I was under the impression that you needed something customer for at least a large number of countries.

I don’t believe they have an ISO keyboard. Others have previously complained about the same issue on their laptops.

To be fair, I don’t think I’d order from a US company and get a single keyboard shipped half way around the world on the ground of environmental concerns alone. I feel bad enough that Apple shipped my last laptop from Korea to Europe.
