It’s kinda weird to me, how small layouts are popular with keyboard enthusiasts. You’d think they’d look at a 100% layout and go, I want more keys. not less. Like, all the popular group buys, and keyboard sets and stuff, should be for stuff that looks like cross between a Cherry G80-9009 and Space Cadet keyboard.
I wanna go on a mechanical keyboard site, and mainly see things that look like Hyper 7 keyboards.

The image alone doesn’t really show how cool the G80-9009 actually is. It has 12 extra F keys, that you can assign key macros to. The screen on the top, lets you display what both the regular F keys and extra F keys do.
There’s also a Calculator lock key, that puts a calculator on screen, that you can use with the numpad.
So sad that there aren’t modern consumer keyboards, with this type of functionality.

As a mechanical keyboard enthusiast myself, I've found that "trendy and looks cool" tend to win out over functionality. Take the coiled cable trend. Because of the coil, the cable is much longer than it needs to be. Well, the signal from your keyboard and the power from your PC degrade over distance, leading to poor performance (in theory) and inadequate power for some RGB keyboards.

And they're not complete without a totally unnecessary "aviator connector," which was never intended for this use and is therefore prone to failure.

The trendiest, most expensive hand-made cable offers worse performance that the generic brand you buy at a big box store for a fraction of the price.

Looks dope, tho.

The Menu key can be pretty useful when you’re navigating a program mainly with the keyboard.
For instance, if your typing in a word processor, a misspelled word will be underlined in red— without a Menu key, you’d have to take a hand off the board, move the cursor to the offending word, right click and then select one of the suggestions from the context menu. With the Menu key, you can just navigate to the word with the arrows, and then just press the Menu key for the context menu, and navigate that with the arrows also.
Though, its use is definitely situational, and most programs heavily favor the mouse over the keyboard.

There are a lot of standalone numpads for you to get. Tho, I’ve not seen many, that have a matching TKL. I’ve seen that on some keyboard sets, but those are expensive. Recently 8Bitdo, the controller company, has put out some retro styled TKLs that have matching separate numpads (the TKLs also have been getting good reviews). Said numpads even have build in seven-segment displays, letting them also act as standalone calculators. The TKLs are only available in the ANSI layout though.

like, on one hand maximalist keyboards like these are cool on their own right - but on the other, god damn I could do with some extra keys at work.

a numpad with two extra rows for ABCDEF would kick ass, and I currently have a bunch of autohotkey scripts for like, putting in the current utc time in three different formats - those would be so much better as dedicated buttons than as "single double or triple tap the menu key". shift+num* = ° isn't the most elegant either

but even if i could find a modern keyboard like that - good luck getting it past work it requirements ;-; can't even have a compose key or unbind numlock like at home, thanks windows

it's not an impossible business model: "custom PCB and a 3d printed case, go solder some switches together" but the market is tiny and most people don't know more than a handful of keyboard shortcuts, let alone want dedicated keys for them

this place seems to do custom cut acrylic cases too, and there's definitely custom keycap places (probably not double shot injection molded but you can't have it all)

all an insane amount of money though I'd guess
