Why does this set feel so incredibly rushed? The single kit has numerous problems.

- Terminal ISO >< key doesn't fit with the pattern
- The two B keys are different colours and the Maja render shows that it doesn't work
- Has two 1u Alt keys but doesn't work on HHKB because of the lack of 6u and 2x1.5u Super keys
- Does NOT support 1u Fn
- Does NOT support split Plus
- Does NOT support scooped 5
- Does NOT support split Backspace or white tilde
Furthermore, the Maja render shown at the bottom isn't even a possible configuration. The left Spacebar is 2u, which isn't supported in the set.

Honestly, I think the group buy should be cancelled until some of these basic changes are worked out.
