That's a pretty good point (with layout I meant both colemak and ortholinearity (is that a word?)). I do think it's additional work to learn colemak on a standard keyboard, but I guess you could go for it if you think it would pay off. I just prefer having the same keyboard for all my computers.
From my experience:
Yes, the main thing is you don't have to pay for nice!nanos which are $25 each as I remember. XIAOs are only $10 each. The price I put on tarneo.fr is only as I remember it, might be a bit more depending on location and the shipping options you choose. But yeah I guess even with that it's cheap.
Because it's a decent competitor to the GitHub monopoly. It also has a few unique features when compared to it. Just guessing why OP uses it though (many people do)
Not really, you get used to the small number of keys if that's the question. It's really just muscle memory after some time (I've been using this layout for around a year, iterating occasionally)
Thanks! Some people find the monospace font hurts their eyes though, but I guess it's a tradeoff of the 90s theme
