The windows key is so super useful though. Not just for quickly starting or finding shit without using the mouse, but also for moving windows around, maximizing them, making them take up exactly half of your screen, locking your screen, etc.
I am very confused why anyone would disable the super/command key. Ever since moving to linux its become the most used key on my entire board.
Admittedly i am using a shortcut heavy tillable win manager. Blown away how fun it is to operate a pc keyboard only. (Overspendinging on nice keyboard switches also helps)
The windows key has a lot of uses. I got a keyboard that has a physical toggle to turn the windows key on and off so I can switch between work mode (on) and gaming mode (off) easily.
Do I just have huge hands or why have I never had issues with the windows key and gaming? In fact it is my preferred way of taking away focus from a full screen app
Sticky keys and the windows key I always immediately disable.

My greatest trick in computer class was memorizing all the keyboard shortcuts and never using the garbage ball mouse.
Navigating a computer just by keyboard almost feels like magic still to some people and it’s fun to rotate people’s entire screens.
Just turning the screen upside down is a classic and works very fast If you know the shortcut, but my favorite was always:
Results in a normal looking desktop with an upside down cursor that behaves weirdly
Calm down, Satan
The windows key is the best key for determining whether or not your keyboard disconnected, or if windows itself has locked up.
I mostly just game on my PC and accidentally pressing the windows key can minimize the game screen.
Display Fusion does a great job of handling that, using more convenient keys that don’t get in the way

For me, it’s more for protecting against unintentional presses.
What I’m saying is I never unintentonally press the windows key
I have big hands and soft keys, accidental presses happen a lot. Glad my keyboard has a toggle for it.
