I don't like to complain without offering a helpful solution, so in case you don't know, the backspace key is generally for deleting individual characters before the cursor whereas the delete key is for deleting entire objects or large selections of data. If no selection is made, the delete key deletes individual characters after the cursor.
For an illustrative example, open a spreadsheet, enter several cells of text, select all the cells, and hit backspace. Repeat with delete instead of backspace.
The problem is worsened by the fact that keyboards made by Apple usually have the word "delete" written on the backspace key.

I hope this was insightful :)
Luckily Apple's delete and PC
Luckily Apple's delete and PC's backspace are in the same place after "=" in a row. Muscle memory can be migrated.
