I use a keyboard cover and it helps reduce this issue. When you do get a crumb under a key and it stops working, the solution is to keep hitting the key hard until you dislodge/break the crumb. Low tech, but it works.

This will eventually break the tiny legs in the keycaps rendering your key permanently inoperatable.

I've only done this about twice in the lifetime of the keyboard. I'm not doing it every day.

Special-sized keys like up/down and backspace are more problematic. Mine is going back for warranty repair next week.
