I quite like that the Apple laptops maintain full sized keys instead of just jamming everything in

  My laptop manages to include all keys without compromising on key size. It is a 14 inch HP. I'm sure a 15 inch MBpro can do the same easily.

    Perhaps they feel it's valuable to maintain identical keyboard layouts across different form factors, including the 13" and 11" MacBooks? I know it's a pain in the ass to get used to the "clever" key positioning on every new Windows laptop I use.

        Why? It follows the principle of least surprise. Imagine if coke bottles had the "mouth" in a different position depending on the size of the bottle. While not an insurmountable obstacle it's not great either.
