It's a very preferential opinion because keyboards can be such a personal thing. I used the Nuphy Air75 v2 for a week, and it is the best keyboard that I've ever used. I really like that particular layout: Ctrl Opt Cmd,the arrow keys tucked into the right Shift key and the Del key just to the right of the Backspace key. https://nuphy.com/products/air75-v2?variant=40635218133101 https://nuphy.com/products/air75-v2?variant=40635218133101

Stuffing things to the right of the Enter key? So the Enter key is not "in the vertical middle of the right-most area" anymore? This would mean I can't position my finger reliably over the Enter key anymore, and would need to either guess or look? That would be a hard "No" for me (with an addition of "Why would anyone ever want to use that?", but I understand that tastes differ). P.S. And don't even get me started on the arrow keys smashed into the rest so not only Enter/Backspace/Right Shift positioning is gone for me but the arrow keys positioning is gone too. P.P.S. If people like it it's fine, not everything in the world should be conforming to my personal taste, but that picture where they have the keyboard positioned over the MacBook keyboard and the top of the trackpad (and a mouse to the side) just leaves me completely flabbergasted.

  Why are you picking your hands up to hit the enter key? Use your pinkie. It doesn’t move.

    My pinkie is what I use for Backspace, Enter, and Right Shift. It resides half on the aluminum, half on plastic. Plastic is a bit taller, and aluminum is a bit cooler -- if I feel that, I know it's in the right spot horizontally. When I move it for an occasional apostrophe (e.g. a moment ago for typing "it's"), I need to put it back in the right position. With an additional set of keys on the right, I can't position it properly without looking at the keyboard.
