> Do people usually carry their keyboard from their desk with them when they take their laptop somewhere else?

Yes, absolutely. Having your keyboard right next to your screen is terrible ergonomics. Fine in a pinch or during a meeting, but not for working for hours.

The Magic Keyboard slides right into my bag, and I use it on my lap while my laptop sits on a table or airplane tray. It's incredibly more comfortable. I have long arms and it's literally impossible to type on a plane otherwise, without elbowing seatmates in the ribs. If I'm working somewhere remote that's more private, I use a tiny collapsible stand that raises the laptop display closer to eye height as well. (Don't want to attract weird attention like that in a coffee shop though.)
