I'm very much against fewer keys (I have lots of space!) but really like how the F keys are now layer+numkey. I don't have to stretch my fingers and lose no functionality otherwise.

It’s bad for IDEs and Excel etc. where you often already have one or two modifiers plus F-key.

Hmm, maybe. I don't use anything that requires a modifier with an F key, that might be why.
