I hate it. Every board is almost exactly wrong. There is always something missing.
i used AnySoftKeyboard for years. I started using Heliboard recently and i was able to customise it almost as much as ASK.
Heliboard is less buggy and is updated regularly (unlike ASK which is updated once a year or once in 3 years).
I use HB to write in 3 different languages with habits borrowed from each other so i need to be able to personalise any button and its popups, placements &c to my liking.
If you think that "Every board is almost exactly wrong. There is always something missing." then you just don't know how to use heliboard. It's as flexible as ASK.
Settings > Languages and Layouts > 'language of your choice' > Layout
There you can edit the layout and add whatever you think is missing
Yes. I know. I've tried it all. It's pretty much impossible to get it set up exactly the right way. There is always something missing.

repetition is risky
