How is the MBP 16" 2021 keyboard compared with the 2019 version?

Anybody has both machines to compare the keyboards?

In my opinion. Cheap flat, rubber dome keyboard. A mechanical is worlds better. Today i used my mechanical keyboard with usb because using this macbook keyboard is so uncomfortable for me. I don't know why they are using rubber dome. There are cheaper laptops with cherry mx switches. I could not imagine to work on this mac keyboard for hours. It would drive me crazy. Even on laptops im used to a Gigabyte Aorus with mechanical keys. They are so much more comfortable.

Which one is more comfortable to type on with less mistakes if typing for a long time? I tried it for about a minute at a store but with a pair of gloves on for hygiene reason.

If you are used to small rubber dome keys, with short keystroke i would say they are the same. I would consider to buy a mechanical keyboard if you want comfortable use.
