I've done projects with MX clears before, they're pretty cumbersome to type on for extended periods of time. For reference, buckling spring can vary from 60-80cN activation force, with the MX clear at a slightly lighter 55cN (peaks at 65cN).

It's funny that they're advertising standard features as unique selling points. 6KRO+modifiers is straight from the HID standard, and you'll find a dual layer PCB and plate mounting in practically any $100+ board. However, the backlighting and DIP-switch options are very, very nice. WASD is solid, reputable vendor as well.

If your main complaint is fatigue, I'd recommend opting for a much lighter switch like the MX reds or browns.
