I’ve seen people’s wrists accidentally touch the touchpad while typing and completely screw up what they were doing. It’s happened to me personally as well.
I don’t know if there’s a better placement, but it’s worth considering. I have seen Bluetooth keyboard/touchpad combos that have the touchpad to the right of the keys, but no personal experience with them.
