    There’s a habit among ergo keyboard enthusiasts to refer to columnar staggered keyboards as “ortholinear”. Ortholinear became a term for anything that’s not row staggered like a traditional keyboard, even though it’s not technically correct. Columnar stagger is a more corrrect term for stuff like corne or sweep. I mean I get it. I could switch between an ortho and a collumnar stagger pretty easily, but every time I have to type on a “normal” keyboard I fall flat on my face.

    The OP means the similar vertical offsets as it’s found on the corne (3/8u for the pinky and 1/8u for the rest, I believe).
