I would respect Apple a lot more if they would just accept the defeat and publicly declare that their butterfly keyboard was a mistake and a complete failure. It was a bold experiment, and they don't always work out but that's okay! How could they not realize their stubbornness was precisely the reason why many customers have turned their back on these new MBPs? I can't expect them to be perfect or correct all the time, but it's more important to be able to accept when you're this wrong.
