When using the telephone keypad on iPhone, why does the "1" seem off-center?

Is this by design? Is it only on iPhone 11s? Some of the other digits/characters seem off center, too.

iPhone 11, iOS 13

iOS 14.1 keypad disappears during phone calls and is unresponsive despite pressing Home button Since iOS 14 my keypad disappears during a phone call on my 1st Gen iPhone SE. Same problem with iOS 14.1. Operator: BT Mobile. I need to enter digits to navigate through the usual automated menu systems but before I can, the keypad disappears. I can press Home button to get back the keypad momentarily but then it disappears or is unresponsive to the digits. If I'm lucky I can get it to accept a digit. This is not confined to one particular phone number. It is not resolved by powering off/on the iPhone. Anyone else having this serious issue? Thanks in advance, David

iphone 13, keyboard doesnt center left to right leaving letters on far right hard to enter 1phone 13. iOS 16.5. keyboard doesn't center itself. leaving a key at the end of the row on the right hard to enter. Other pages likewise don't center well cutting off whatever is on the far right of the line. choosing the smallest type doesn't cure it.

Can you turn Iphone XR Keyboard to be like I Pad Pro? I would like very much to use the keyboard (virtual) of my iPad pro on my iPhone. I understand that the iPad’s screen is larger than that of the iPhone, but a lot of keyboards on smartphones uses the extra line for numbers (like google’s), for example, so technically it is possible. Besides, I don’t understand why they made a huge line at the bottom of the iPhone keyboard that housing only the language switch button and the dictation button. Also I like the Paste symbol on the iPad keyboard That allows you not to move your fingers away from the keyboard. what is much worse that in my local language the location of the keys moved a little but until there is a different letter below the other in the two keyboards. And that is very confusing and makes me do a lot of mistakes. Also, it is a Little odd that there is no clipboard (a feature that saves all your recent text copies) as this is a very convenient feature that is missing to me. I mean, in Android keyboards like google’s, there is the option to open the clipboard from the keyboard area. Thanks

Because there is no text below it. If you put a straight edge at the bottom of the 2 and 3, you will see the bottom of the 1 lines up with it. It is like an optical illusion.
