"I want to avoid diving into different layers because I type so much and often have to reframe and contextualize my prose."

Then why did you build a minimalist board? Sounds like you're trying to force an ok tool at doing something that a different tool would excel at.

If it doesn't work out I can always grab me a Q2 but other than the delete key situation (which I think I have solved) I'm not really having any problems with the Q9. It is a weird keyboard - and I wish I'd bought the ANSI version! - but it's lovely to type on.

Don’t mind that person. Nothing wrong with having a minimalist board that suits your needs. I write shorthand professionally in real time on a 65% board and have had to do some silly things like swap shift with ctrl to get everything just the way I need it for my purposes. All that matters is that the layout reflects your individual needs, and only you know what those are!
