> why isn't there a keyboard shortcut to access the clipboard?

You can tap and hold with three fingers to bring up the clipboard bar which has icons for undo, redo, cut, copy, and paste. Assuming that's what you mean by "access the clipboard"?

You don’t actually need to hold, just a three-finger tap (anywhere on screen, except keyboard itself) is enough.

Personally, I almost never use it since I often operate single-handed and it is not part of my muscle memory. Tapping the cursor then waiting a second or so for regular context menu (with lookup, translate and other options) is my preferred way.
