And yet even in this story, there are multiple comments a la "Yawn. I can't believe this is an issue. Apple shouldn't be paying attention to niche complainers."

Because the level of vitriol is not commensurate with the problem? They'll replace the keyboards, most people don't have issues. (I know I don't, 2+ years in).

Nerd entitlement rage is monotonous. The latest models 4th gen keyboards are pretty much fine.

Couple of things though:

- they'll only replace the keyboard for up to 4 years after the purchase date

- they'll replace it with the same faulty keyboard, so there's a good chance it'll have the same fault again, only once it's put of warranty

We know they've gone through several revisions that have purportedly reduced the incidents of problems, and they'll likely go through more improvements. When you get your keyboard replaced they will use the better variant.
