This year's 40s day brought some earlier designs to my attention, like this Xenon built and posted by chewiedies. According to designer narinari:

Xenon is a 60% columnar staggered keyboard.

Well, about 60% but definitely not in its classic sense.

Xenon comes without the number row but has a generous thumb cluster sporting keys on two levels – both in MX and Choc format.
