the size of the keys might be different , how far they are from each other too.
It has come to the point that it's the natural position for me when using a computer, so even in rest when I'm reading something on the screen. Or when I'm at work, where I can't play games.
Use a proper mechanical keyboard. Learn to type properly. The keys are absolutely spaced perfectly.
Also of note: the QWERTY keyboard layout is well over 150 years old now, so like 5 generations of typing this way will be difficult at best to get around.
There are other keyboard layouts, but they are used by such a tiny percentage of the English typing population that it doesn't really feature here. If your fingers aren't reaching the right keys in specific games, look for rebinds.
But overall: get a proper sized mechanical keyboard and learn to use it properly, that's ... why we have standardized keys for things at all. Right-handed people use this with a mouse, left handers sometimes are forced to use the arrow keys but those are also typically 'secondary' binds on most games even now.
It sounds like you're creating your own problem.
But everyone is different. If you can find a new setup that works for you fine, but they don't need to change anything to accommodate a minor % of players.
Personally I will never go back to a non ergonomic keyboard because it puts so much less stress on my wrists. But some people act like typing is different on an ergonomic keyboard.
The way I hold my hand I have quick access to movement (WASD), Jump (Space) and crouching (Left Shift). Keys like Q, E, R, F and such were easily used for other actions.
It all comes down to getting used to it. The keys I use, I simply don't even have to think about them. Like I said, it has become a natural position for me.
But, what works for me doesn't necessarily work for you. Use a control scheme that suits you, that's the most important.
I can type fine and did so quite a bit with real typewriters - which I'm not even sure if they exist nowadays. Gaming demands are quite different than document generation. So for gaming I adapt my stance from typing style to a more lazy/comfortable stance. I wouldn't dream of trying to change qwerty keyboarding for typists - only for gaming.
I considered ergo keyboards but they like to jack up the price on anything not considered standard, so that messes with my disposable keyboard disposition.
