They mean that alps linears have a small tactile bump due to the switchplate design. How noticeable it is varies from batch to batch in my experience.

That bump is basically nonexistent. You can feel that same bump on many linear mx switches if you really feel for it. Even then, it gives a little bit of character as opposed to the incredibly basic feeling of mx linears, which was kind of my whole point of saying try alps in the first place.

That's not completely true, like I said it varies based on the switch. I have a batch of yellows that genuinely feel like tactile switches and greens where you can't feel it at all.

Well, the point stands, not a good reason to not try linear alps.
