I used to use keypad all the time so when I got first laptop for work having one was my preference. I regretted that decision as the keyboard was more narrow than it otherwise needed to be.

On a side note, I love the CM Storm Quick Fire TK keyboard I have with brown switches. It has no arrow/home vertical area, instead when you turn the numpad off the keys act like that slice. I wish more keyboards were like it. Not sure why they aren't.

To your last point, I really think the vast majority of users do not understand what slices on keyboards are, much less how to use them.
