Comment on Rotary Keyboard

What an impressive project.

One thing this design demonstrates about the standard keyboard design:

- In order to disallow using the number row, a giant 10U keycap is placed over the number keys. This deliberately restricts usage. It's funny because it's unexpected.

- 3 rows down, you've got a giant 6U keycap. But, most keyboards just look like this, even though it's as impractical as this joke keycap above.
