Yeah I totally understand the expense. I do. But it feels like buying a new car and having to replace the trim. "Yeah it's awesome, but you have to replace one of the things that makes it what it is."

I don't know, I mean the keycaps are made to be replaced.

It is a very good analogy. Car manufacturers put on some stock options, say cassette player only, that simply beg to be replaced when add-ons, say CD/DVD player with aux input, do not cost much more and help improve the user experience. Same thing here.
