100%. I've got three Q-series builds (one for each of my three machines). Each one different, each one personalized, and each one so much fun to type on. I feel no need to spend $500 on a keyboard, either. A $190 barebones board and $100 worth of switches and keycaps are more than satisfactory for me. It's not a competition and the only one who uses them is me anyway, so I only need to make myself happy and no one else.

I think my Q12 might be the most I've spent on one so far, I couldn't get a barebones since I bought on the day it was announced, so it was $205 for the keyboard, $50 for caps and I think around $40 for a set of switches. I'll keep the original switches and keycaps as spares just in case.

What does it matter. If he likes it, then he likes it. No need to turn your nose up. I'm sure your first few weren't perfection. Not everyone needs to sink $1000 in to a keyboard. For $200, the OP has himself a better keyboard than 99.9% of all users. The expensive road to perfection has diminishing returns.

I noticed the same “factory tape mod” myself. Mine came today. Opened the case to add some poron case padding and add some tape to the PCB. Keychron saved me a step.
