I came to say that, but you beat me to it.

Well I personally like the fact that it's backlit and the media keys are more intelligently placed in my opinion. With that said, I wish you could choose the cherry mx switches. I prefer blue.
So, yeah, definitely not enough to make me replace a mechanical keyboard I already have, but perhaps enough to make me consider getting it over my current one (das) if I didn't already own one.

Me neither. I've been using a Das Keyboard for years now (was surprised that a fan of the Model M didn't mention it) and see nothing here to compel me to give the CODE keyboard a go.

It's already sold out but it was the only backlit mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Clear switches on the market.
Unless you don't mind soldering and/or building a custom keyboard from scratch that's a huge selling point.

If you need a backlit keyboard it means that you (1.) are working in an environment that's way to dimly lit to be healthy and (2.) really need to learn touch typing.

Yes and no. There are a lot of people who are into keyboards and they buy a backlit one because they want to not because they need to.
