I think it's because you're supposed to get it with one-touch access. And I never, ever, ever use my right shift key. Ever. It's still in factory condition, even after two years of use.

Same can be said for my right option and control keys.

@John Stansbury: Never, ever, ever? Not even when your left hand is occupied and you're trying to use only your right hand to print (Cmd+P) or something? So do you or will you map your right Shift key to one of those commands?

Oops, meant to reply to this a lot earlier.

I learned how to type on an ancient PC laptop with...no right shift key or alt key. Massive 12" screen, too. That carried on with my new Mac keyboard, and is how I do stuff today. For fun, I just took the command and option keys off, just to see if I'd even notice. Shift key, too.

So far, don't miss them a bit. But I would never map something to those keys, since the only time I hit them now is when I miss the key I meant to hit or press it in error. That's part of the reason behind the magical delayed-caps lock key.
