What do you mean here? Apple Enginneers *did* test the Plus, but as you apparently forgot, the Plus has no ADB keyboard, and the original Mac didn't have arrows at all. The arrows and numeric keypad were just an incredible hack whose result is that you can't detect combinations of command keys with arrows (or for that matter with any key on the numeric keypad) on older non-adb keypads. So Apple Enginneers are not to be blammed (for this one anyway).
