Thank you, that killed the deal for me
What's the difference?
Newest one is USB-C to charge

You only need to charge it once every few weeks, right? And many of us have some lightening cable laying around, so it's not that bad?

The one I purchased also has the lightning connector. From my experience, the lightning connector version works just fine. You can use the included lightning to usb-c cable, or I used a lightning to usb-a from a previous iPhone. No issues charging.
I have the keyboard connected to two Mac Minis and one MacBook Pro using a KVM switch using a lightning to usb-a cable, KVM expects usb-a. KVM switches keyboard to the correct computer, and magically, the correct computer connects to the keyboard over Bluetooth. I believe the Touch ID happens over Bluetooth if I am not mistaken. All works seamlessly.
I'm not sure what the usb-c version of the keyboard offers over the lightning version, other than the possibility of needing a lightning cable in 5-10 years. However, the lightning version works just fine for my workflow.
