What the hell is even that

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

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.

Huh? There are linear, tactile, and clicky alps. Each of which are fantastic. Better yet, you can swap each leaf out without desoldering, enabling you to change your switch type in an hour just with a toothpick and a keycap puller.
