I want them to add raise and lower so you can use custom layers on your keyboard. Not that crap.

We alrwady have a raise button - the shift key.

I mean more like the Raise and Lower keys are used in QMK, more flexibility in the keyboard layout. Turn any key into anything else you may want it to do, including full macro functions. There’s so much more that can be done than just making letters big.
