The name form better represents the semantic meaning of the structure, and reduces confusion with the list section and other uses of list in KMX+.

I can see that using form instead of list is better, but I'm still struggling with that term, probably because form has so many different meanings. It's not obvious what's meant with it. Would one of hardware form, hardware, kind, category be better?

I'm using the terminology from the spec, https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-keyboards.html#element-layers, where it talks about "This element contains a set of layer elements with a specific physical form factor, whether hardware or touch layout." So agree that 'form' has multiple meanings, but at least this lines up with the spec 😁
