I would appreciate it if you could direct me to the appropriate department to request an increase in the size of the keys on the keyboard, similar to other companies. I have adjusted the keyboard to its maximum size, but other keyboards allow for a larger size than Samsung's.

You can download a different keyboard from the Play store. You can Type in landscape mode, where the keyboard is bigger.

What others have you tried? I personally use SwiftKey from Microsoft which has those functions and even more. And one can actually resize the keyboards too. One thing that is a must for me is having the arrow keys which work great for repositioning the cursor for editing etc. It also allows for an array of color customizations (one must have have an MS account to allow that, but it is free). Here are two screenshots where I actually changed the size of the keyboard and it is based on where one raises or lowers it, not by set increments. Also note the arrow keys at the bottom.

 

The left side is my setup, the right enlarge by dragging up the keyboard height. My side can also be made smaller.

Your device already has a clipboard which can be viewed from inside the edge panel. And what is "much of a clipboard history", like it only keeps certain types or certain words? Anyway, I hope you find what works best for you.

Use the clipboard edge panel.  It keeps your clipboard history forever until you clear it.  You can pin things you copy and paste often so it doesn't clear when you hit the clear all button.  

Why so dependent on AI writing?  AI smooths out your brain and doesn't help with cognition because you aren't doing the writing yourself.  The Rolling Stones were right - you can't always get what you want.  There is no perfect keyboard/clipboard that will please everyone or even have all the features you desire.  The keyboard clipboards only keep the clipboard history for a set period of time for YOUR SECURITY, not because they like to frustrate you. People forget that anything you copy and paste is transferred to the clipboard and this can include sensitive information. If they kept the information forever, anyone with access to your phone can access that information.  I repeat, no  keyboard clipboard will keep your history indefinitely.

 

To add the clipboard edge panel (or edge panels in general) go to settings/display/edge panels and choose your panels.
