Except they aren't rubber dome switches, the rubber is just part of the spring mechanism while the switching itself uses capacitive sensing.
Similarly, infamous Hall effect switches, as well as the similarly rare optical switches, don't use mechanical component for switching itself... Rubber dome switches, however, technically do (switching happens when the keys cause physical hit on the membranes)
P. S. Yes, I'm riffing about how it doesn't really matter.
