The thing is about all the function keys apple has assigned to their stock keyboard.

On third party keyboards, unless specifically designed to be compatible, one'd have to remap all the keys and it sucks. Because it's not plug and play and sometimes the adjustments interferes with the on board keyboard of the MBP itself.

Then there is the material and layout.

It took me roughly 6 months to hunt down a keyboard with layout I like with POM keycaps and black switches. (PBT is somewhat better in general terms as it's not too hard. I just don't like the texture of PBT. I mean, it's a fucking keyboard that one TYPES, why do they make texture on it is beyond me... but again... personal preference. I like my keys to be buttery smooth).

It was a out-of-production Mac keyboard from Fentec Industry.
