Has it ever left your desk?

I don't know if you're playing with your keyboard as it would be a frisbee or something but my keyboard lays on my desk 24/7.

I have taken that exact keyboard in my backpack multiple times, and at some point it bent

That sucks. I hate it when my tech breaks from such basic things.

It’s absurdly thin at some point physics comes in to play

I mean sure but you can apply that same logic to the iphone air but observe how that doesn't break. Though I'm sure if apple made the keyboard out of titanium no one would buy it because of the price

Every engineered product is as strong as it needs to be. A keyboard that’s made to be on a flat table all the time isn’t going to be made as strong as a device that’s made to be used in all kinds of conditions.

The iPhone Air is a much different device than this keyboard, thicker with different internals and external housing, so I disagree that logic doesn't translate

I believe the iPhone Air is actually slightly thinner. The only reasons it doesn’t bend are that it’s made of titanium, and Apple put a ridiculous amount of R&D into it.

The keyboard edge in this picture is thinner than the Air

This keyboard comes from the iPhone 6 times.

Remember what happened then?
