Recommendation needed for better locator (F & J) keys for Cherry MX OEM Profile keyboard
I keep losing the location of keys on new DAS 4 Pro Keyboard. i.e. My hands can't tell if they have shifted left or right a key. The keyboard has Cherry MX Brown OEM profile 104 keys. I'm looking for new keycaps to help my fingers better locate the F & J keys. I've been a touch typist for decades (going back to the IBM Selectric) but have been using MS Ergonomic 4000 keyboards (no longer available) since the 90s. The stretched G & H keys on that keyboard likely contribute to my having some difficulty getting used to a standard layout. I'm looking for either a more pronounced "bump" on the locator keys or I've heard about keys that are more spherical and the F & J keys are a deeper depression (MT3?). I've found that a touch typist position with more vertical fingers completely missing the bump on my DAS keyboard F & J keys. How do the different profiles change the keyboard. i.e. Can I use a few MT3 keys with my OEM keys? I have all black keys now, and am not looking to go...

There was then a falling-out between I:C and MD.
As a result I:C have changed the switches slightly (for legals reasons perhaps, I don't know). However I believe the Hakos are even smoother than the Halos - take that info with a grain of salt though, they might be exactly the same. I've yet to see a drop on MD for the Halos so tbh I'd just buy the Hakos.
