They may be normally distributed, but most people have at least one or two outlier parameters that customization could help with.

Personally I just suggest going to a keyboard meetup and trying out a bunch of ergos and picking the design you find most comfortable.

I lucked into the Mitosis layout in 2017 (literally, I won it in a raffle) and have used it ever since. True endgame.

It's simple statistics. The chance of every parameter not being an outlier is small.
