I am aware what a 7 row keyboard is. My point is the vast majority of consumers don't use or care for such a feature, especially if it means they get a slighter thinner, lighter, sleeker laptop.

Have you met the vast majority of consumers? They're dipshits.

In your opinion. Secondly if the vast majority of consumers were chimps, then we would market what appeals to chimps. I don't see how pointing out that the vast majority of consumers are dipshits changes anything. Companies will still market to the people who buy their products. Not super niche use cases.
