While I prefer wired keyboard as well (due to not having to deal with pairing / connection issues), this argument I don't understand:

> Firstly the board is completely wireless, which means I have to charge it via USB-C. As I'm sat practically tethered to my desk all day a permanently wired option would actually be more convenient as it would save me to the hassle of charging.

Then plug the USB-C cable in permanently? How is it different from it having a wired keyboard?

Plugging in the USB-C cable is for charging only, so it would still be a wireless connection. I'd still need to connect via bluetooth or the Logitech dongle. I won't get any of the benefits i.e. latency / lower power consumption of using a wired connection.

I also have concerns about the charger degrading the battery if it's completely plugged in.

Right, I only meant in regard of inconvenience of having to charge it.
Maybe it doesn't work when charging? That's the case with some devices
