>>The standard piano key mapping is the elephant in the room here. Where is the experimentation corresponding to the thriving QMK keyboard rabbit hole?
There has been some experimentation with Isomorphic keyboards on and off over last 150 years. But like with QWERTY, the legacy of what grouchy old white Austrian males left us with in the 18th century is hard to shed :O
(I've started fully nerding out about learning music late in life, and it's been a mix of enlightenment and frustration. The clefs & notation system, the piano keyboard, they're all seemingly designed to beat any sense of intuition and understanding out of you, and have you memorize by rote things that you could have otherwise just understood. )
