I've found them quite useful and I don't think anything else was using them before TFAR and as that's been around for a while and is a very popular addon, I'd have to say it was a bad call for RHS to use the same keys as TFAR.I don't know what other uses people have for the numpad keys but I know Zeus was reluctant to switch to TFAR for a very long time just because of that, so at least one big community was bothered by that. I don't think there's a need for quick-channel-switch, as changing a channel is something you rarely do, and having a such a prominent part of the keyboard dedicated for that will more often than not lead to operating errors, even if not used by other functions. These keys should be kept for stuff exactly like UAV control, as they serve as arrow keys. In my eyes it's a common case of an author that "sees" only his own mod and not thinking forward how to accommodate his mod into the game as a whole.
