The numbers point to the keyboard issue being a problem for a *tiny* group of users. You can bet, if Apple did do away with the keyboard, the Android group would rail against it, then copy it a year later. Just like they did with:

* The notch
* Dropping the Headphone jack
* Face ID
* The USB port (ditching of legacy ports on the iMac)
* The mouse
* The GUI (copied by Windows)
* IOS (copied by android)
* The look and feel of the modern smartphone 
* The bondi blue iMac
* The iPod
I could go on and on. Remember Verizon turning down the iPhone in 2007, saying it was going to fail? If the Asian tech companies didn't have Apple to copy from, they'd be SOL...
