I think mechanical and low-travel, which is what you like, are not mutually exclusive. For example, MX Cherry Low has been recently developed and it's pretty similar to what you are depicting. And probably a lot more sturdy. But you do make a good point. Some very low travel keyboards get me a few extra key-presses per minute too.
Re: Ask HN: Does anyone else despise mechanical keyboards?
#11MX Cherry Low might have me try a mechanical. It looks good in videos. Was hard to find typing videos/examples, but thank you! I have a lead!
