The tips of the trigger are moving at most 1cm. A key press travel is on the same order magnitude as the trigger. The larger challenge is you can achieve high precision and repeatability on the triggers because of your fixed point of references (how you hold the controller). This is much more challenging to achieve on a keyboard, but also not impossible. We can see analogous situations with playing keyboard instruments. The same thought about keyboard instruments will probably point to analog computer keyboards getting the most of the analog input through velocity control as opposed to absolute position control. Ie, striking a key quickly vs slowly causing different behavior.
