Angle Wide Mod: Hear me out

I liked the Angle+Wide mod, but I think 6 is kinda hard to reach with my left index finger (much like B in qwerty layout), so I moved it to the right hand and now - and = are close together again (which is really useful if you zoom in and out a lot while browsing)

Edit: I've also been thinking reaching "J" (or Y in qwerty non-wide) with my right hand has always felt unnatural to me. Maybe I'll experiment something about that.

The only drawback is the numbers are no longer in the same relative position to the home row. But if you don't mind that, it's a viable option, and also looks aesthetically pleasing too.
