What's the deal with the computer hardware industry anyway, they must

USB sticks preventing each other from fitting into adjacent ports.

Out of the 3 dozen or so USB sticks I have around here, only a couple
are too wide to fit side by side. If I need to use those two together,
I stick one on a 6-inch extension.

Ever take a good look at an aircard? Sure, you can always hook another
hub to each hub port, sellers love that.

If not the hardware, doubtless the software. Keyboards are a PITA at
the best of times, it takes 3 fingers on left hand plus 2 fingers on
right hand to select-to-end, some keyboards have a one-finger
PgUp/PgDn and others require Ctl, etc etc.

Select-to-end is Ctrl-Shift-End, 3 keys. How are you needing 5 keys?

Lemme see here. Gosh it's only 4 keys, Shift+Ctrl+Fn+End on this XPS13,
silly me to be disappointed that it takes those extra keystrokes and
ties my fingers in a knot! Also seems silly of them to have blank spots
above Home and End keys instead of putting something useful there.

Keybinding? You could have one button to press and do the same thing.
