Instead of full sized keyboards, it might be interesting (and cheaper) to go for an ergonomic 40 or 60% with a split space bar. I’m pretty enamoured myself by the idea of programmable layers.
I can enjoy many headphones. Swithing out keyboards is not as easy and switching out keycaps even worse. I have 3 and that is still one too many between 2 computers.
That being said, sometimes I just want to try a different form factor and they don't exists in any form except with mechanical switches. Cheapest ergodox is going to cost me $100 to build.
I'm digging low-profile mech keyboards these days. Is there a Topre low-profile option? I had a Realforce some years ago but I think it would feel too high profile for my current preferences.
The additional expense for a premium keyboard doesn't seem like a waste either. Keyboards are probably the one piece of hardware that can last for decades. IBM keyboards from the 80s can still find use today
