Two Mice Technique
I’ve use a mouse to the right and a Magic Trackpad to the left for years. They, along with an ergonomic keyboard[1] help with wrist pain a lot.

Split Keyboards Gallery
You can also build a PCB (or two) pretty easily. That’s what I did when I built my keyboard. You can find the source here: https://github.com/ecopoesis/nek-type-a

A Very Detailed Guide on Split Keyboards and How to Build Them
There's the Cloud Nine C989 [1] (though I don't know how the mechanism to keep the two halves attached works), or for a DIY option there's the NEK Type A [2].
For the profile of the keys themselves, you can make small changes to an existing keyboard by changing the keycaps -- although it's not always easy to find all the sizes required for an unusual keyboard. See [3]. I have SA keycaps on an otherwise-flat keyboard.

Unicomp Inc.'S "New" Model M Keyboard
I can suggest the following, I had three advantage 2s before picking up my 360pro.
I modded all of the 2s with the following boards:
* https://github.com/kinx-project/kint - Great board, requires usb of course. Programmable with QMK.
* https://github.com/wizarddata/Blue-Wizard-Mod - Doesn't support QMK but does support ZMK but is bluetooth. Great board.
I picked the kint up on some pcbway type service, the blue wizard I got off ebay.

Those of you who have used a keywell board (e.g. dactyl) but came to prefer a flat one... what were your reasons?
I have a KinT board in my Advantage2 keyboards, gives you all the QMK goodness.

Help Flashing Teensy 4.0
I assumed you tried using the link for kinesis_kint41_default.hex from https://github.com/kinx-project/kint/tree/main/default-firmware and it did not work. It is difficult to download individual files from github if the file is not text.

KinTed Kinesis Advantage2 with Tai-Hao Dark Tunnel keycaps
Some time ago, I replaced the default SmartSet controller board by a KinT board (produced by JLCPCB) with a Teensy LC controller to run QMK. It's splendid and I like it so much more than the default SmartSet firmware. Also makes it easier to keep the 360 Pro and the Advantage2 in sync.

Old Kinesis Keyboard Firmware?
You mean Stapelberg's own Kint? It's also great, I use it in two KA2s (only not my work KA2).
What are some alternatives?

VimMotionApp - Access macOS UI elements with your fingers stay on keyboard. Inspired by vim-easymotion & avy-mode.
