F and J keys

On typewriters, and later on computer keyboards, they have a raised ridge on the F and J keys. This is so that touch-typists can find them without looking (F and J are "home" keys, where your index fingers start, and from there you can find every other key without looking.)

So why do Kindles have a raised ridge on the F and J keys?
