In this case, I think "no distractions" is the goal. It's running on an ESP32 microcontroller, not even a full-blown SBC computer like a Raspberry Pi. It's probably a good choice for such a device but I also don't feel terribly blown away by the price. But, thinking about it, it is a mechanical keyboard with a display that runs about $90, so, not an unfair price, but, certainly not low-cost.
