The point is that calculators have a standard layout for the buttons (0 is at the bottom, 1 above it, etc.) which I wanted to keep visually, but I also wanted to keep the HTML matching the logical order (0 is before 1 etc.)

I used the “ASCII” method to easily place the buttons in their visual positions. It also naturally helped with the + button being larger.

If those long strings for 12 columns can be redefined with variables $head12 or $head4, a fairly complex layout could be achieved with only a few variables. But not sure about that.
