Alright I think I got it figured out. Try this config. It will make ctrl-shift-n toggle virtual numpad. (Feel free to change that.)
Just install Hammerspoon, choose "File >Open Config", paste this in, save, then go back to Hammerspooon and choose "Reload Config”. On macOS Catalina, be sure to go into System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility > Check "Hammerspoon.app"
