If it’s something you’re gonna be doing infrequently, sure - it helps you perform it smoothly and without much cognitive overhead.
But if it’s something you’re gonna do very often, then it’s okay if it appears a bit random at first, you’ll soon start doing it mechanically without thinking and it’s best for it to be designed around it. This will allow you to insert a smart quirk in this hole left by the lack of consistency. Like enabling you to clean your keyboard in this case.
Ergonomics often collides with common sense, and it’s ok.
