My point is that your anecdotal evidence is not enough to support your claim. Those genre of games don't benefit from such a device either. Especially games that use a L O T of keys, since you don't get a bonus modifier key but just the standard 3 already available on the keyboard.
If you mentioned frogpads you might be at least on the start of something
Orbweaver 20x8 + 8=168 total key choices
If dpad is mod this decreases and at least 60 of those become out of range.
Meanwhile on a keyboard modifiers and keys reachable with one hand are easily 200
25*8, not counting the Win key mod.
Now in games that exceed this or where Ctrl-Shift-Alt is too much of a pain and you need SPEED, being able to reach another 25 keys (modifier also holdable is questionable) makes the choice obvious.
Is the orbweaver comfortable? Yes.
Is it ideal or in anyway increases your APM on average? No.
