Miryoku basically has the numpad, which I still think is dumb to be quite frank since the numpad was only made like this for archaic historical reasons.

Having the 0 on the thumb is quite a good choice though. As long as one doesn't have to move outside +-1 of the home row of keys (like one has to with numpad).

I’ve never really been a numpad user, but I like having 123 on the bottom row for more comfortable reach as they’re more frequently used for me
