For something so thin, that's probably unavoidable.
Personally, I don't think I want a thin laptop. Not for any kind of meaningful work, at least. Thin doesn't just mean less key travel, it also means less space for battery, and less space for cooling.
I mean, I don't want an excessively bulky laptop, but there's definitely a point where the returns from thinness diminish really hard.
Well, I would prefer them to leave the chassis at x1g6 dimensions with good enough key travel and introduce new x1 "paperthin" model for people who like such designs. Now apparently I will have to switch to T14s during next upgrade. Unless Lenovo also mutilates it somehow...
