Sickening is an odd word to choose. People have aesthetic preferences about all sorts of things, and they're often prepared to pay more to satisfy their tastes. What's bad about that?
Yeah sorry wrong wording, my bad. I only find the overpriced keyboard competition sickening.
Obsession about aesthetics is completely healthy.
There is nothing sickening about people liking aesthetic keyboards.

It think it all depends on your typing style and body.
The issue with standard boards and the planck is people typically type with their hands parallel or near parallel and their wrist are bent. This can cause wrist pain over time.
On "alice" type boards the wrists are straight so typing is quite comfortable.
