    Yeah I’ve never understood how this is a problem people have, I don’t think I’ve ever accidentally pressed it while playing a game

      Starcraft - alt and ctrl are frequently used, easy slip to make in a rush. Pretty sure there was an override in the options menu specifically for preventing this.

      depends on what games, in fast pace games you would have keys binded all over easily reachable by your left hand, shift/tab/ctrl/alt could all be used, that’s why many gaming keyboards also come with a switch to disable the windows key as well.

      Same. People with small hands maybe, whose hand base is near the keyboard when hovering WASD.
