So we're not going to need a complete list on the business card, a small
selection is sufficient. For readability, I'd have reduced the selection
a bit, but, as Chris points out, it's a business card - readability
doesn't seem to be of importance for those for some reason that I cannot
follow, but will just accept.

There are some reasons for this, design and otherwise:
1. It's a very small document with limited space. 
2. To look good, the design must contain the usual bits of breathing room (empty/negative space) as not to look cluttered, which is why I've included the inkscape logo in the middle instaead of trying to cram more hotkeys in there
3. A business card can easily be lifted up, using the built-in zoom function we humans have when we hold things closer to our faces: https://youtu.be/pg-5SOydz6Q?t=38
4. I'd have to cut out a LOT of key shortcuts to make font much larger, and would have to remove the Inkscape logo in the middle which presently helps break up the space. I'd have to cut so many of them out that it would no longer be a very useful list.

Basically, it's making the best I can out of a bad situation with too many good ideas. :)

The good news is people from our community on Facebook seem to love it. So that's encouraging. :)
