What a colossal fuck up.

My 2016 MacBook Pro has the best keyboard I've ever used in my life. It is a joy to type on. Of all the things that needed "improving" in my laptop, the keyboard would have been dead last.

Hell, if they were still selling 2016 MPBs today with the exact same specs, I'd take that over a 2018 one.

Wasn't 2016 the year they switched to the butterfly keyboard?

Sorry, yes, got the date wrong. "About this Mac" says:

"MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)"

I guess I've had it longer than I realized! Still holding on to it desperately hoping Apple ships a new MacBook with a fixed keyboard before this one dies.
