"Ergonomic" is not a boolean value. Is an ortholinear keyboard 1% more ergonomic than a staggered keyboard? 10%? Is there even one universal scale? For me, and for all of the people I know who have tried many keyboards, a split layout is a HUGE improvement over a standard layout. Ortholinear is far less obvious - the few people I know who have tried one (such as the Kinesis Advantage) have given it up and gone back. Anything different means that you have to switch layouts whenever you go to some other device - whether that means your laptop or someone else's machine or whatever. It requires relearning some bit of mental memory, and even if it can be done it's absolutely daunting to users and not something to be dismissed. If it's confusing, that is a risk to sales. I have a Moonlander on preorder and will see if it's better than my current staggered split keyboards, but to claim that staggered keyboards aren't ergonomic isn't just controversial - it's flat out wrong.
