    The need is the same as any hotswap option, I suppose: To change switches without having to solder :D I had my fun modding it, and am selling it on, hoping someone new to the hobby can use it as a cheap base to experiment on.

    There can be glitches in the connection to the switches, but nothing I have seen unresolved by slightly angling the switch pins before inserting them.

      As good a reason as any. Keep it up. :)

      Yeah, making fool proof hot-swapping isn’t easy or cheap, usually. But good enough is good enough, especially for diy. The fun is in the making anyway.
