The Nuphy's do seem a little more my speed for style and feel. I like the practical implementations of rgb on those new models you linked to. They're not much more expensive either.

I wonder why that is. Almost none of the low profile options have rotary encoders. I don't think a column staggered design would be a good fit for me right now, though I'm sure they're nice. I may just have to compromise on the encoder, or the low profile. I feel like the low profile might be less important to me.
