Windows 10: Customizing mouse keys

The mouse keys documented at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/use-mouse-keys-to-move-the-mouse-pointer-9e0c72c8-b882-7918-8e7b-391fd62adf33 are very unintuitive for mouse buttons.One has to first select a button, or combination of buttons, then decide to single click or double click.This requires pressing 2 keys, and seems like twice as much work as necessary. Realistically, I only need the following :1 single left click2 single right click3 double left clickThis should only require 3 keys on the numeric keypad to be pressed just once, and there are many more - /, *, - +, 0
