Conspiracy theories running rampant as usual in their communities.

It's simply a remapped right control button (who uses it as Ctrl?) and it was not a certification requirement. Microsoft rightly encouraged OEMs (like Lenovo) to start labeling it to match what their intended use of it was for.

It's nothing new; keyboards are made for the operating systems. Take a look at a Commodore64 keyboard for example.

It's like throwing a fit because Windows had right click and side buttons on their mice while Apple had a single button.

IBM set the standard for the QWERTY PC keyboard which was based on typewriters. They even changed it from 101/102 keys to 104/105. Microsoft isn't even adding a key, they're reassigning it; just like Linux does.

Apple uses command instead of Ctrl, Option instead of Alt, and unique symbols for modifiers.
