There are some similar statements: "mechanical keyboards aren't much better than normal keyboards", "mechanical key switches aren't much better than normal key switches", to which "some mechanical keyboards are much nicer than standard keyboards" aims at the former.

I feel to say about "mechanical keyboard vs standard keyboard", these niche ergonomic keyboards should be considered.

I only recently discovered these weird keyboards. So I figure that's as good an excuse as any to extol these benefits. (And complain about how weird a standard keyboard is!).

Capital required to come up with a keyboard design is a much more minor factor.
