What on earth are you talking about?

Of course it has F1-12, it's just in a better place. It's completely programmable, so you can choose something that makes sense to you.

Well, I'm looking at that keyboard and don't see F1 for example, so there is no such key.

Using key combination for basic keys is like using mouse to emulate keyboard.

Ah, yes I know so many devs that struggle to type G. Shift+g is so hard these days.

I suggest you read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html section about comments.

If my IDE requires me pushing SHIFT + F3, I would need now to push SHIFT+ALT+F3? How is that in any way more ergonomic? I assume split keyboards are the golden standard of ergonomic design (or I thought they should be).
