What year? I got mine in Oct 2017 and the "home row" keys are gray, thumb keys are white.
Also hilarious use of the wrist support.

Have you considered a vertical mouse?

Hahaha I KNOW. I really regret not getting the black one. I got mine a month ago and I can all the home row keys are going to get so stained. I need to stop eating food on my desk!

I have considered a vertical mouse, but....one step at a time! The wrist support don't fit on my tiny keyboard stand and I discovered my chair arms rests actually do a pretty good job so I moved them around 😊

Oooh, I zoomed in and I see these are labeled keycaps. Mine are profiled instead. Hence the color difference.

Since it's so new, does this mean you have hot-swappable switches?
What switches did you go with?

Shine/Glow?

RE: mouse, I got an Anker AK-98ANWVM-UBA, and was pleasantly surprised.
The only thing I'd prefer is if it had wrist support, but for standing/low table that's not an issue. Also wouldn't be an issue for smaller hands, it's nice and large (but light).
Obviously not a "gamer performance" product, but on the other hand disposably-priced.

Have you tried putting the mouse between the keyboards instead of the right side?
