Or lots of people playing FPSs on their MBPs?

Seems unlikely given how bad Macs still are for gaming (and how expensive they are compared to other laptops which are better equipped for it.)

I think the OP meant literal heat, as generated by the CPU or other internals.

Yes, but zelos suggests that the reason these keys are problematic might not be related to heat but due to them being used more.

I did mean actual heat, but the commenter's observation about WASD also probably contributes to why those keys in particular go bad. I don't know whether the heat source underneath them or the WASD gaming use is more of a factor though.
