I held my 2013 MBP for a long time because of the keyboard issue and finally replaced it with the late 2019 MBP. I find the new keyboard fine (though this year it’s spent its time in clamshell mode mostly).
My MBP 2013 was "The Desktop Replacement" machine. Not anymore, all the rage about "death of the desktop computer" and now in 2020 I rock monster Ryzentosh with joy.
