Because it’s tiring to type passwords again and again And while a good solution is a touch ID magic keyboard , say someone likes mechanical keyboard more ? Some people do tape Touch ID keyboards under their desk to just have touch ID , which from a cost and even a UX perspective isint that good. And

I don’t want one. It either means smaller keys for everything else or a wider MacBook. Both not desirable. If you seriously need numeric keys for whatever reasons, you can use an external one. https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MXK83LL/A/magic-keyboard-with-touch-id-and-numeric-keypad-for-mac-models

I had Logitech MX Keys - for about an hour, that's it. What a crap. Plastic, bending, localized character snot burned with laser like Apple does but printed on. Piece of garbage.

I love mine. Unfortunately, Apple is the only that makes a reliable touch ID for macOS, and they're expensive. I personally bought mine used, which saved a ton of money.

I have the Magic Keyboard with TouchID and Numeric Keypad and I absolutely love it (on my Mac mini, M2 Pro). TouchID works great not just with unlocking my Mac and ApplePay but also with apps that support it like 1Password.

Microsoft Surface Keyboard or Apple Keyboard https://www.rtings.com/keyboard/tools/compare/microsoft-surface-keyboard-vs-apple-magic-keyboard-with-touch-id-and-numeric-keypad/1773/28306 Perhaps go for the cheaper Surface Keyboard v1 in the review without the Copilot key found on v2.
