parts says 66-70 keys, couldn't you use 72? #41

the parts list says 66-70 keys yet, if all 5 keys in the thumb cluster were used, there would be 72. is there some design factor that prevents all 5 from being used?

Yes, the way the traces are set up the top keys would be wired together and both trigger the same key in QMK as far as I remember. I did this without checking the traces and only realized this after finishing the build.
