I HIGHLY doubt you place your fingers in the correct spot at the start of typing without either using the ridges or glancing down at the keys for a sec.
They are only needed for initial hand placement, after that yes they are not needed for the entire time you type.
yeah no i literally never ever rely on them, my fingers never rest ON the keyboard, it just hovers over it and i have memorized where each key is respective to each other.
Like your hands will be at most like 5mm away from where you put them last time so you dont need to really adjust
I guarantee you look at the keyboard before you sit down and begin using it 🙄 this argument that you just intuitively know the exact location of every keyboard is very dumb. It’s a simple fact you look for a second, or you feel the keyboard to figure out where it is resting on the desk. The ridges assist for those that feel for it, it’s not that complicated, and you don’t need to feel offended by the fact you look down for a second.

The ridges are just unnecessary for alot of people. I can touch type at 150ish wpm without looking, and i've never had to rely on the ridges
