I don't know how you operate your left shift key, but it's in the perfect position for my little finger and makes a good anchor point being right at the edge. Plus it makes | a breeze, which is nice for shell pipelines.
If I had it my way, I'd cut into right shift too; on this keyboard it's almost three keys wide. I could do with a dedicated pair of keys for unshifted (), {} or $ or a meta leader or something.
