It's mainly due to using topre switches but they also swap CAPSLOCK for CTRL by default (which used to be normal back in the day). For me, having gone through heaps of MX-based boards, I always return to topre. The typing experience is just superior IMHO. Unfortunately this new board uses MX type switches which to me is weird because it's their biggest differentiator and selling point.

Have you compared/contrasted Topre switches vs. higher-end MX-compatible switches?

Actual CherryMX branded switches are not great in my experience. I find Gateron's factory-lubed MX compatible switches to be excellent, and they are considered (I think?) middle-tier.

But I have never tried "exotic" or "high-end" MX-compat switches, nor have I tried Topre. I would love a comparison.
