Mechanical keyboard or membrane Typematrix 2030?

Good afternoon everyone.
After a recent review of mechanical keyboards on Habré, I wanted to please myself and get a serious mechanical keyboard (either das keyboard or Filco). And then I saw this one: www.keyboardshop.ru/collection/typematrix/product/...
It has an alternative arrangement of keys (like for more convenient typing), the keys are located at a right angle, and in general it looks quite “geeky”, which is very good. But the only detail that puzzled me: it is membrane.
So the question is: what to choose? Professional mechanical or geek and it seems like a very comfortable membrane? Has anyone tried this Typematrix 2030?
PS. All my life I have been typing on membrane keys, I really like thin keys, like laptop ones. Typematrix has just such. But I was very intrigued by these mechanical ones.

I typed on both and concluded that I don't like long-travel keyboards (with tall buttons). The grid of keys is interesting, but I think retraining fingers to a new location is not a very good idea. Especially considering that (I) often need to work on different keyboards, including laptops (where, for example, dependency on numpad prevented me from living at first). In general, the keyboard is a very subjective device, here, as they say, there are no comrades for the taste and color.

I don’t like it right away:
the fact that the keys go in solid rows,
the fact that many functions, like on laptops, can only be activated through the additional button ala Fn
, the lack of distance between the keys.
