The reviews claims this is the “world’s largest keyboard”.

It claims to be inspired by the legendary “Space Cadet” keyboard from
the 1980s

and is certainly a wonder to behold. Yet with all the modifiers it
does provide (look, they found room for *two* “Meta” keys, both on the
right-hand side!), they somehow decided to omit any CTRL keys.

Note on modifiers: “Meta” is commonly a synonym for “Alt”, while the
“Super” key is usually mapped to the one with the Windows logo on it,
for those still stuck in the Microsoft world. The “Hyper” moodifier
has no equivalent on a conventional keyboard. These are all names
well-established from the days of high-powered workstations running
Unix or doing AI work with Lisp. But what the heck is the “SMOL” key
supposed to do?
