Would expect a lot of user testing and validation goes on at Apple.

Seems like you need to RTFM and probably make some mods yourself.

I think some defaults are intended to show off the hardware even if they are not what you would want to use on a daily basis.

Also, maybe there is too much user testing in some cases? Do you really need a wide escape key?

I have caps lock remapped as escape: I decided long ago that the standard escape key is not accessible enough for me, so maybe some people do need a wide escape key
