Why was this question closed as "Questions seeking product, service, or learning material recommendations"?
I am asking for a product limitation. where do you see I am asking for a recommendation? Answering "because it was" is useless.

@MátéJuhász I do not have access to the deleted comments. I believe only mods do. (+10k users may see deleted questions and answers but not deleted comments)

I think I'll just write some extension to hide all comments on Stack Exchange and forget about them.

@fixer1234 It's difficult to find thick o-rings.

@BenN done: superuser.com/posts/1071438/revisions . That being said, I don't think it would be overly broad not to specify it, but in my case I just care about one aspect, namely key travel reduction, so I don't mind narrowing it down.

So I was thinking of taking one Corsair rapidfire K70, and adding o-rings so that the travel distance is just a few mm more than the operation point (hoping it won't create issue to actuate keys), which should be around 50cN and linear, with a ca. 1.8mm travel distance.

Thanks, I was thinking about capacitive touchscreens too (I'm surprised nobody mentioned it on hardware recommendation), but I couldn't find any non-compact touchscreens used as a computer keyboard with decently good reviews (I could only find the Cool Leaf Keyboard, which seems to have quite some issues), I don't know what the actuation force would be, and I am a bit wary regarding the lack of short absorption. As for chiclets keyboards, I couldn't find any with a low actuation force and bottom out force. (I have one 60cN)

Do you know why so few people seem to be interested in reducing the key travel? My goal is to get a flat keyboard with the shortest travel distance and lowest actuation force possible.

ah, I just realized the usefulness of mentioning the desired result, good point.
