My T470 has the Fn on the edge, and Ctrl on the inside. I like it because it requires moving my pinky less to hit Ctrl.



My problem isn't Fn and Ctrl, but that Shift may or may not be the same shape.

If Ctrl is on the outside I am guaranteed to hit Shift when I push them both with my pinky straight up.

I have two Lenovo laptops in front of me right now.

The key straight up from Fn on the Ideapad 3 is a pipe. On the Thinkpad the shift key is the correct length (two keys wide).

The two have opposite Fn and Ctrl keys.

Consistency, am I right?

Muscle memory is a thing, and even the same manufacturer isn't doing things the same way between models.
