Been typing on a Neo Ergo with Aqua King V3s for a long while now. Tented Alice is my perfect layout. It's got MTNU mictlan on it currently with some resin.

Shoutout to your supportive wife for that Drop Alt, but going from an integrated plate (stiff as a rock) to a modern gasket mount with a PC or FR4 plate is going to feel like typing on clouds.
Since you are doing heavy research on layouts and specifically mentioned wanting a "gentle typing experience" for work, allow me, an Ergo enthusiast, to whisper a dangerous idea into your ear: Split keyboards.
If you truly want the ultimate typing comfort for the office, separating the two halves to match your natural shoulder width is a game-changer. It stops your shoulders from hunching and lets your wrists rest at a natural angle. I won't tempt you with specific rabbit holes just yet, but definitely keep an eye out for ergonomic split boards while you browse. Your wrists will thank me, even if your wife doesn't!
Jokes aside, you can't go wrong with a PC/FR4 plate and screw-in stabs for that perfect balanced sound. Good luck with the build!
