He's 2/2 with this issue. The statistical likelihood of that if the issue only affects a small percentage of laptops is very low.
1. 2016 MBP came with some of the keys extremely clacky. large very audible snap noise on ~10% of keyboard keys. Went away after ~10 days use (was about to return it).
2. months later something small got underneath the spacebar. few days later, spacebar no longer worked on right hand side.
3. replacement came. few months later another piece of dust/particulate got under the spacebar. Being much gentler this time I got the particulate out of the way without breaking the space bar. I've since sold the computer.
Note: I never eat near my computer so I don't know were these particulates came from.
I noticed it was especially reproducible when the machine was under load / hot. Almost like the ambient heat was melting glue inside or something. Either way, utterly ridiculous for a machine that cost about 3k.
As someone who was a huge Apple fan, they have really gone downhill lately.
I've always adored the MacBook Pro line since they were so solidly built. I've dropped a pre-unibody model where it got it a big dent in the chassis but it kept on trucking for years. Quality like that is worth paying for. "Keep away from dust" is not worth $3000.
Sometimes I think Apple only intended for this laptop to be on display in a sealed box.
