Unlike non-mechanicals, a mech registers the key press before you hit the bottom.

The trick is, on a scissor switch (or butterfly) keyboard the key travel is so short there is no really hitting bottom. Yes, from a mech keyboard perspective you "hit bottom" every time, but I find it a superior typing experience over trying to catch that halfway point when the key is actuated.

I have to say low profile blue switches offer quite a nice typing experience though, quite comparable with scissor switches.
