Why people recommend it

Often suggested for understanding how keyboards talk to a host, with Ben Eater walking through the clocked PS/2 signalling and the codes sent for each key.

In their words

(See, for example, [video] where someone goes through how to plug a PS/2 keyboard into their breadboard 6502 computer.)
