@GTSJoe, you need to add 107 and 109 too, its +, - on numpad :D

are there any other instances similar to e or E that non-mathematicians might not be aware of that could be added to this conditional check?

This does not prevent copy-pasting e or E in the field though

Better to use return event.keyCode !== 69 as it avoids an unnecessary ternary operator. Also wouldn't recommend inlining.
