The weird thing about key travel to me is that the keyboard isn't an instrument, there's no control or finesse required, it's binary - you want the character or not. When playing an instrument like a piano, you want the level of control (assuming you play better than I do) so long travel makes sense. If playing a guitar at speed, economy of movement is key to accuracy at high speeds - (a) strings should not be any further away from the frets than is required, (b) fingers should not lift any further away than is required, (c) pick should not move miles and miles but just enough to make the required sound. I enjoy typing on clicky keyboards like my Keychron, but I gotta say, the flawed MBP keyboards of recent times with hardly any travel were amazing. I'm on a 2019 MBP 16 now and it's not as good as the previous one, and the new 2021 MBP isn't much better either.
