Title: [RFC] Symmetric60

It's Palindrome day. I think it's time to show my work: Symmetric 60. 6 months ago, I took the right turn in my life and started my customized keyboard journey. My day job is highly stressed and frustrated so I read GH daily as a stress relief medication. Ideas comes and goes. After two months improvements. Here it is. Symmetric 60, staggered yet ergonomic enough fits into 60% form factor. No space is wasted and no stabilizer is used.

How do you think?

Cool, but some of the keycaps may be a little bit hard to get ahold of. Some of your modifiers look like they have weird measurements.

have you considered making them all 1u? the outer edges would be stair-stepped, but I think that could still look cool. Otherwise it does seem like you have a difficult layout to find.

Nice work, search for the Katana60, and then the Tsuka60.

And then maybe the semi-ergo layout by mtei and the utron or mutron.
