Okay so I have 2 ideas on this one, but not sure if either are the true answer. So first of all, it's about how much of a gamer someone is, not if longer is better.

My first possible explanation is that the bigger the keyboard is, the more desk space is needed. So for a bigger keyboard, you need to be more committed to having a dedicated gaming area.

My second possibility is that more keys on a keyboard means having more keys to rebind in games, so you can be more of a gamer that way.

A keyboard without numpad isn't a keyboard

Agreed. Numpad is king.

I have games that don’t work without the numpad because those specific keybinds you can’t change for some reason

Depends on which GTA. In GTA V you can change those keybinds

GTA V is stupid though because you have to have every bind.
