Advice Seeking

I don't know about alt layouts (colemak etc), as I use QWERTY. And I haven't tried the Svalboard. But I've been down my own version of this rabbit hole due to moderate RSI issues. I hear you, on wanting to make all the big changes at once — the many elements of the board, the alt layout, maybe other

My initial question would be if you hover type (palms always hovering so that your wrists are straight) or do your palms sag down and your fingers are higher than your wrists? I'm no doctor, but that is probably the first line of investigation
