Unlike other "programmables," this is so much more than swapping CapsLock and Escape keys in some configurator software. If you have even a little proficiency in C++, you can make it into anything you can dream up. Google QMK firmware and have a look. You want to have an extra "shifted" layer for punctuation or a numpad or window control keys or programmable macro buttons or capsword (a capslock that automatically turns off at the next space)? No problem. You want a layer for home-row nav keys or mouse wheel up/down or F13-F24 extra function keys for macros... just add them to your layout file and flash. Want to switch from QWERTY to Dvorak to Colemak at the touch of a button... then this is a good entry-level model to try your firmware-building chops. You can have 32 layers, different tap-hold scenarios, multi-key chorded combos... it's a real (but fun) rabbit hole.
Don't get me wrong. There's definitely a learning curve. But most people don't want to drop $400 to see if they have the time and the C++ chops to build the required layout files. $30 is a totally different story. And you've got the same processor as the better keyboards that you can later step up and buy, if you're into it. Just my 2 cents on the value prop here...

It does have a backlight. The deal version has a red backlight but there is an RGB version available for $10 more
