Keys are repositioned in clusters to either "familiar" relative positions, or otherwise logical ones, using ANSI Apple keyboards as a reference, e.g.:

- Arrow keys are placed on `Layer 2` in traditional `VIM + QWERTY` positions.
- `;:` is accessible as a combo on a stronger finger, but retains its own relative position to the `'"` key.
- `;:` is positioned next to `, <` and `. >`, as a natural punctuation cluster.
- `1–5` numbers retain their familiar "left, upper-row" position on `Layer 2`, while `6–0` are positioned in the next row below. This not only feels natural for single handed numeric typing, but also moves the most used symbols [for programming] to more accessible positions.
- `Fn` keys are aligned with their corresponding numeric positions on `Layer 2`.
- Bluetooth profile selector combos on the `Fn` layer are aligned with their corresponding numeric positions.
