I recently picked up the Logitech MX Keys for Mac from Amazon for $80 (new, sold by Amazon) which IS backlit and uses USB C. Granted, no Touch ID - but if you can find the MX Keys on sale, it is quite a bit cheaper (even at this $150 sale price). It definitely seems like a solid alternative (with backlighting!).
Touch ID is incredibly convenient (for login, online passwords, purchases, etc.), and is honestly (for me) worth the increased price by itself. Also, I found the slight alterations in the Logitech layout frustrating. Because the Esc is smaller, the F1-12 keys (which I use for work and some gaming) are offset differently, which confuses my brain and I end up having to look down to make sure I hit the correct key. Also, the modifier keys are changed around on the Logitech, which makes shortcuts require more thinking as opposed to just being muscle memory.
The Apple keyboard is pretty much exactly the same as typing on my MacBook keyboard, from the ways the keys sound, to their depth, and the spacing of the layout itself. I don't ever have to think about which keyboard I'm using. I guess if backlight and USB-C are hard requirements, then this is not the keyboard for you. But I never work in the dark and don't mind having an extra lightning cable that I pull out once a month to charge the keyboard, so it was never a major problem. But the issued I mentioned above definitely were.

I can't fathom why they don't bring that feature, and we have to use 3rd party alternatives.
Possible anyone knows of a app or utility to change the "Caps Lock" timing so Any brand keyboard has a user defined or similar to apples delay to lock?
