Feels like they've had a hard time selling these caps so now they're bundling them with a mid board.

Not sure there's any value here unless the price drops.

Value is somewhat subjective for non-commodity products.

I could see a lot of LOTRO fans (even ones not into mechanical keyboards) buying such a product.

While I somewhat agree, my key (pun intended) inference was that they've offered the key caps as a standalone purchase for quite some time and I don't think those are selling well so now you can get a bundle with a board to help move stock. The opposing point being there are likely boards that are superior in a similar price range you could combine with the standalones.

If you're a lotr fan this very likely doesn't matter.
