Most laptop keyboard keycaps are less concave on the top than desktop
keyboard keycaps, therefore it is a little harder for your fingers to find

the keycap typical travels down to, and usually even below, the base of
an adjacent keycap, which is the widest part of that keycap. If you hit
the keycap off center, the result may be something like this or worse:
