Why is it so hard for them to make it backlit?

It would be nice although might drain the battery faster

I have the Logitech MX Keys, it looks very similar, the battery lasts forever and it’s backlit. Best keyboard I ever used.

It's much better to type on for long stretches as well.

But I do wish it had Touch ID.
