all those layouts are legacy from mechanical typewriters. There pressing keys next to each other sometimes caused the levers to interlock. So letters that often follow each other were put away from each other. And somehow this created the regional flavors of where the q,w,z,a,y are. maybe other letters too, but these are the ones i’ve encountered.
I truly don’t understand qwertz. That being said, in Flanders we use azerty, while the Dutch use qwerty, despite us speaking the same language.
