Aren’t keyboards more ergonomic when they slant upwards?
No, although many people think that a slanted keyboard is the best. Actually, it is not. The reason that most keyboards were manufactured with a slant was there needed to be a place for the electronics. When a keyboard is slanted, it forces the user to cock their wrist upwards putting unwanted pressure on the user’s wrists. This position is one the reasons that carpel tunnel syndrome is prevalent with heavy typists.
