Alright. Purchased. Now we wait. Got the baby raccoons to try them out but will probably swap in alpacas.

RG's have a larger tactile bump than the BBKs, so in turn they kind of feel a bit heavier because of that bump, but I honestly find them more satisfying to press than the BBKs

Yup! The build quality, the sound, the unique switch options and great keycaps I find are all superior to the equally priced keychrons/glorious keyboards. The only hiccup is no Via/qmk support

Second column from left, bottom, the pink/purple 60% is gorgeous. Can I ask what it is?

Definitely compatible with Alpaca's. I've tried a couple of switches with the same coloured housing and it honestly doesn't effect the rgb much at all

I am not OP but it could very likely be just how the picture was taken. If you zoom in you can maybe see what could be one of those marks on the :; key

No need to apologize because I won't pretend to be an expert myself and we're always learning in one context or another. π€
BBKs are normal mechanical keyboard switches with a shorter travel distance of 3.4mm.
Having never used the Alpacca v2, both are 5-pin, but it appears that the Alpacca housings are opaque (and not clear), meaning that you'll lose out on the RGBs at the switch location.
Here's a picture of the Halo 65 with all the switches pulled. You'll see a north-side RGB at each switch location that the Alpacas would presumably block.

If that's what you tell yourself to justify the ungoldy amounts of money you spend and never use, by all means go for it but it's still a problem.

Checkout the Feker Alice 80. Prebuilt, hotswap, comes with Gateron Yellow Pros (lubed), and is fairly cheap ($120-130 I think). Oh and it has bluetooth and wireless (via usb hub) if you are interested in that.
It is pretty muted, but there are easy videos to give it a thoccy sound, although it is pretty thoccy, just more muted due to the silicone in it. I prefer the muted because I use it mostly for work.
I got the Matcha caps for like $30 and it looks amazing with the white board. I seriously might buy another for home, I like it so much.
