Opposite goals. If it's in your pocket it needs to be minimal size. If it's deep in your purse, it needs to be easy to grab.

Makes complete sense. Well said

And if it's on a carabiner on your belt loop, you want a middle ground which is a situation in which large hair ties really shine. Added bonus, you're likely the sort who needs one regularly and likes being able to offer one to people who need one.

Doesn't it make a lot of noise walking around with your keys constantly hanging on your belt? I would also be scared that someone stealing them while on the train or something.

Have you ever walked past a janitor or security person and heard their keys rattling? I don't think I have, and they typically have a lot of keys. Unless they're bumping into something, they should all swing as a single unit. It shouldn't really be an issue.

Not really, unless you have a lot of keys. They just kinda swing together. And pickpockets are rare in my country, so the fact that they're in front of me where my hand naturally rests leaves me feeling secure in them

Seems like the purse is going to have an ever escalating competition for being big enough to grab.
