> Why should it just be one thing?

I have not suggested that. Quite the opposite. Let's not make gadgets be the only thing that matters, even though it may be more fun to geek out on key alignment.

You are fighting a strawman. No one said that gadgets are the only thing that matters. Most people who had hand/arm issues and use ergo keyboards will tell you to: go to a doctor first, then get a good chair and desk, do regular exercises, and maybe then get an ergo keyboard.

I have been in the MoErgo Discord for a while. When someone new comes in looking to buy a keyboard because they have wrist/hand/arm pains, the first advise consistently: go see a doctor.
