Where do you stand?
Did a dog eat and regurgitate the entry labelled lawful evil? Also, why are none of the chaotics even ergo, or keyboard?

Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
Rules
Keep it ergo
Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)
i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²
¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

It's a reference to the Sandwich Alignment Chart, "a burrito is a sandwich"
The chaotics aren't actually ergo because the rules of what counts as ergo have broken down, that's the joke.
See this table for the descriptions.
| Lawful | Neutral | Chaotic | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Good | A split col-stagger is an ErgoMechKeyboard | A split ortho is an ErgoMechKeyboard | An ortho is an ErgoMechKeyboard |
| Neutral | Only sculpted keyboards are ErgoMechKeyboards | Any split is an ErgoMechKeyboard | Any keyboard is an ErgoMechKeyboard |
| Evil | Only ErgoWarp is an ErgoMechKeyboard | Alice is an ErgoMechKeyboard | A burrito is an ErgoMechKeyboard |
Dactyl CC. So somewhere around Lawful neutral?
man i want a dactyl like this
I'm somewhere between lawful neutral and lawful evil with a Compactyl. I really want to know what lawful evil is
I think this chart need a revision.
You could have added the squeezebox, some scotto, artsey.io....
I will need several burritos to evaluate your chaotic evil claim. Preferably breakfast, with salsa on the side.
What's with the lack of tenting? Nobody cares about pronation?
Anything without wells isn't ergo - change my mind.
What's that lawful evil? Looks great :P
