Semicolon to underscore trick
For minimizing awkward finger movements, I feel like a decent approach would be to borrow techniques from the tiny keyboard crowd make a multi-layered keyboard layout to minimize movement. e.g. some people have 34 key keyboards with multiple layers triggered in various ways to get the full range of input. (Some people go even further, e.g. to 16 keys).

The new and upgraded Framework Laptop
I would be very interested in having a programmable ergo keyboard like the Ferris: https://github.com/pierrechevalier83/ferris

Have there been splits with an IC?
The ferris (not sweep) is a great example of a board with an integrated mcu. The big disadvantage is that the design is tied to a specific part and also will be less accessible for DIYers. In the case of the ferris, the chip that it uses has been almost impossible to find for the last year, which is one of the factors of the sweep's popularity over the ferris. https://github.com/pierrechevalier83/ferris
What are some alternatives?
When comparing pankh-keyboard and ferris you can also consider the following projects:
dracuLad - QMK-powered 34-36 key split keyboard
Sweep - Sweep - a small promicro based keyboard inspired by the Ferris.
fifi_split_keeb - Fifi Keyboard 🐶 ⌨️
miryoku - Miryoku is an ergonomic, minimal, orthogonal, and universal keyboard layout.
Ferris-Slip-On-Case - Friction fit case for the ferris pcb
zmk - ZMK Firmware Repository
SofleKeyboard - A split keyboard based on Lily58, Crkbd and Helix keyboards
qmk_firmware - Open-source keyboard firmware for Atmel AVR and Arm USB families
sweep - Sweep: open-source AI-powered Software Developer for small features and bug fixes.
36keys - Keyboard pcbs with 36key or less?
