I've tried almost all the kailh clickbars. I recommend box pink or box white v2 for most people. The latter need some break-in before they stop binding. Chosfox arctic fox should be similar, but mine haven't arrived yet. White owl are slightly better than pink, but not to any noticeable degree.

Jade is too tactile, navy has the same clickbar, but the heavier spring compensates. Still too heavy for me.

Pale blue, china green and yellow, and mute jade don't have enough tactility. OG box white is the lowest I'd go in this regard.

Click jackets feel OK but sound rattly.

Zeal clickiez are a good start, but are even more tactile than jade. Either put orings under the caps, or wait for a revised clickleaf version.

Alps are nice, but are wobbly and have poor availability.

It's a less extreme version of something like this: https://youtu.be/8wZ8FRwOzhU

Weird keyboards solve individual problems.

Split (like Alice and 2 piece boards) can help wrist angle.

65 and 40 assume that you prefer portability or less hand travel, but are ok with layers to enable them. I skip 60 because you get no size benefit, but lose the arrows, don't see the point in those.

Ortho straightens finger motion, but makes alt-fingering harder. With staggered, each finger can hit 5 keys, 3 with ortho, but with no bending.
