Zero binding on this one, but I'm sure that was the reason for stepped caps on some keyboards at least. I'm not a typist, so having big targets would really help in my case. Preferably the size of closed fists when using Microsoft.an_achronism wrote: ↑10 May 2021, 03:44I'm guessing that hitting one of those keys off-axis might make them a tad bindey? I always assumed that was why they stepped them, to force you to hit them dead centre!

I don't need those stepped key extenders or whatever you're supposed to call them, but I wouldn't mind having them anyway just for novelty's sake.

Maybe? I actually dont know much about the pen. I got it over 30 years ago. I do know it still works even though I've never replaced/refilled it.
I call it my "fish pen"

Maybe the chunky-butt shape means it has a giant inkwell rather than the usual tube? It's weird as hell, I like it.
