Lots of companies stay in business selling subjective experiences. But there isn't a functional advantage to keyboards with a lot of feedback.
Got any research to show that? Or should I just assume that your personal opinion is worth more than everybody elses'?
You're the one making the affirmative statement that high travel keyboards - which the whole market is moving away from - are functionally better than low travel ones. You prove that there is any real rather than purely subjective benefit.
The whole market isn't moving away from high-travel keyboards. In fact, there's a lot of interest in them, and they are generally preferred by gamers.
How do you explain the widespread perception that laptop keyboards used to be good but are now crappy?
> real rather than purely subjective benefit
Subjective benefits are real benefits.
