On many non-English layouts there are dead keys, and the ` key may not exist, except as a dead key.

For example, the letters å, ø and æ are very common in Danish, so they have their own keys. The acute accent is sometimes used to mark stress, like é or ǿ, and this is done using a dead key -- it wouldn't make sense to have several keys just for this purpose.
