There is some altCode that is space for settings and language switch keys, that's what is most likely triggering this issue.
I don't know what this altCode is for, but I learnt that weird undocumented things originating from AOSP keyboard should be handled with care, so I don't want to simply remove / change it.

you could make a test version without altCode and I'll try using it for a few weeks and tell you if something unusual will start happening. it's not like i'm a tester or smth, but I wou.d love this issue being fixed

After going through it again, I think the alt code makes sense, becuase if you miss the wanted key and switch keyboard layout, then it's rather annoying.
Possibly this could be changed to only guard against clicks near the key edge though.

I think the decision you suggest is sane, good idea to do that
