The form factor of this and the Apple Magic keyboard are just an ergonomic nightmare.
I have a strong preference for natural / split keyboards, but I'm perfectly content with typing on normal keyboards if that's all that is available. It might take me weeks or months of typing on a standard keyboard before I start to get the aches going in my wrists. I lasted barely half a day with a 2015/2016 era Magic keyboard before my wrists started hurting like sweet merry hell. It's far too cramped, forcing the wrists and arms at weird angles, even with the keyboard out at full arm's length. (I find the Magic Mouse to be similarly absurd from an ergonomic perspective. Shape was fine, but having to arch a finger to use it is crazy, and similarly bad for RSI)
I was really curious to see what the offering was here, but, ignoring price, this is just such a terrible, gimmicky choice of form factor. They immediately eliminate a sizeable potential market by choosing this one.
