In programming, this would be an example of bad design.

In combining the key and ring into one object you make it so that the key+ring doesn't act the same as another key. You can't remove the key+ring or you leave the other keys without a ring. You have to make sure you have a single key+ring (unless you want to make them into a chain), if you get rid of one key+ring you have to convert one of your other keys into a key+ring to take its place.
- sanj 17y agoSure, but that assumes that all keys are equal. Mine aren't. If I could find my house key more easily because it was the ring itself, I'd be happy.
- tome 17y agoYou can surely find a simpler solution to the problem of "find my house key more easily"!
- erlanger 17y agoThat's exactly what I thought: I want my keyring to work with _any_ keys. Further, this key makes the entire key-keychain apparatus uncomfortable. It holds fewer keys and they are likely to hang at an awkward angle.
