Thanks for that super actionable advice. /s I'm sure you've noticed that (especially) laptops have virtually no keyboard customization options. Once MS starts pushing this, every laptop peddler will be including them on every keyboard. Which means that once again, the majority of laptop keyboards will get objectively worse. It's hard enough finding a laptop with all the keys in the right place these days. Adding more pointless keys is just going to make things worse. Thank goodness for keys being reassignable in sensible operating systems. External keyboards aren't that big of an issue, I can just build my own and call it a day, but I haven't seen anyone build any custom laptop keyboards.

Yeah, it sucks. But to call it not actionable advice is just hilarious. You are 100% able to not buy keyboards that don't work for you or you don't agree with. This is actionable. You might have to bring an external keyboard with you everywhere if you can't find a laptop one that works. Having values requires making sacrafices sometimes. Here is how Richard Stallman reads the web: "For personal reasons, I do not browse the web from my computer. (I also have not net connection much of the time.) To look at page I send mail to a demon which runs wget and mails the page back to me. It is very efficient use of my time, but it is slow in real time."
