Again, no non-scooped F & J? And no alternative scooped keycaps such as H, U, N, T, A? I wonder if Dvorak/Colemak/Workman user base is really small, or they don't buy keycaps with (correct) legend? It is frustrating that many key sets could have much more layout customizability by offering just a little more.

purple_rwIt’s not flat R3 so you need a full compatibility kit for alternate layouts, not just homing keys

sevenseacatWell, the Ortho kit is all R3. And all I use nowadays are ortho boards. So I just need extra homing keys for this set (or other DSA/XDA/SA R3 kits)

purple_rwwell, ortho-only users that only use alternate layouts would be a tiny fraction of a tiny fraction. Just homing keys would be fine for you, but there's no way they'd make MOQ.

sevenseacatMechanical keyboard itself is a niche. So I'm in a niche of niche of niche. On the other hand, I do see non-scooped F & J for many DSA or XDA sets. I suppose there are more people who use QWERTY but don't like scooped caps?

purple_rwThe reason you see non-scooped F & J for many DSA or XDA is because DSA and XDA are uniform profiles which means that if non scooped F & J key caps are included then the set is automatically compatible with Colemak, Colemak Mod DH, Dvorak, Programmer's Dvorak, Norman, Workman and whatever other optimized typing structure y'all freaks come up with! Only two keys for extensive compatibility is a win for everyone, but sadly not possible in sculpted things like this set here.

MiToThe Ortho kit here is not sculpted. And you said my point: Only two keys for extensive compatibility is a win for everyone!
