Kafka and keyboard absurdities

[Naimfan]

Late 2016 15" Macbook Pro keyboard failing. The "b" key is again repeating intermittently and getting progressively worse.

This is the third keyboard that has been installed, and the fourth time I've had to take it in for this exact problem in 3 months of ownership from new. While it may not have quite reached Kafka-esque levels of absurdity, it's getting close.

So for anyone considering a 2016 model, it might be advisable to pass and either hope the next iteration improves the keyboard, or find a 2015 model.

the 2017 doesn't fix the design flaws either

Off to Apple Engineering . . .

I've requested a replacement.

Only thing I can think of is that the "b" and "n" keys are getting heated up, but I don't know what's underneath them that would do it.
