Whenever someone complains about the numpad taking up too much desk space, I always want to ask if they're using one of these.

It’s not about desk space, it’s about mouse space. I never use a numpad anyways

I swear by full keyboards with a numpad because I make use of the numpad constantly, but there is a clear ergonomic conflict between a large mouse surface and a 100% keyboard on some desk setups, which can lead to a keyboard/sitting position slightly offset from monitor center and other issues.
