Unrelated thought: I just find it astonishing that it's 2020, we have plug-and-play hardware of every kind, I can wirelessly connect my phone to my car and it just works, and yet every time I reinstall an operating system I have to manually tell it which symbols are printed on my keyboard.
Technically, you are not telling it what symbols are printed on the keyboard, but which symbols you prefer to type. Because you can setup different symbols than those printed, which many people make use of.
But sure, having some default-value returned by the keyboard would be sweet, but probabvly also more problematic than helpful.
