Latent Defect? Keyboard keys wearing away.
Is this a latent defect? MacBook Pro 2018. Bought at iStore early 2019.
Keys on the keyboard are 'wearing away'. To note I mostly use a BT keyboard ... keys on the laptop are thus not under any 'use' stress. Especially bad when using backlighting. For now, it's mostly the 'A' and 'S' keys. A net search shows this to be a common problem in MacBook already since 2008 ... it is thus known but ignored by Apple? I followed due diligence ... I had it looked at by our local iStore, and they acknowledge the problem and shared that the cause is due to the type of material the keyboard is made of [??] ... seems Apple thinks the keyboard wearing away is ok. Not their problem and not part of their quality program. It will be for the owner's cost to get the keyboard replaced !! Thus this issue received NO help from Apple. In my opinion, it's clear Apple has started foregoing quality in favour of product launches. Any other experiences I may learn from, please share.
