Do you use exclusively the backspace key when attempting to correct a mistake? I use the arrow keys a ton for moving through text fields. Most small keyboards have function keys to hit arrows, but I hit the arrow keys a lot. Seems like critical feature missing. I'm also a big user of page up/down/home/end. I can't see giving all that up.
On my keyboard it's a function key plus:
So they're all very accessible. I find I'm much slower at using those keys on a full-size keyboard or on laptops than on my 60% keyboard. But it is an adjustment, and it's not everyone's preference, for sure.
