I prefer several types of modern mechanical key switches to the buckling spring switches for several reasons including sound, feel, travel length, and activation force (gaming and typing have different optimal force to me, for example) but you're correct that the switches are what make it special. And Cherry blues are my least favorite modern switch. All the noise, but not great feel.
