It’s an accessibility thing. If you can’t press two keys at once, then you can turn it on and press the modifier key, then the active key.
It would be nice if the default wasn’t being on, or it asked during installation or something.
I bet someone who needs it likes that it’s on by default.
This is a rare case of an accessibility feature often being someone’s roadblock…
It’s a hell of a lot easier to disable than it is to enable, especially if you’re not disabled. It’s a minor inconvenience once for us, but enabling it could be exceedingly difficult to overcome for someone else.
Yea, a disabled person might have to get help to enable sticky keys if it wasn’t on by default. Most non-disabled people should not need help, unless they are so tech illiterate that they don’t know how to use Google.
It’s a small annoyance that gets less annoying if you look at it from an empathetic viewpoint.
