I'm not entirely clear on the layout you want or the feel or travel distance of the key presses you like, but I am reasonably comfortable that this one checks all your boxes.

EDIT: I would bet dollars to donuts you would love something along these lines if you swapped out the standard keycaps with low profile ones.

    These particular switches are not clicky and are fairly silent to be honest. I can speak from experience because I bought one of these and I fucking hate it. But you would love it because it’s the exact kind of key press feel you’re describing. Plus, you can tweak it to be stronger or weaker resistance, depending on whatever mood you’re in frankly. And yes, the key caps would have to be a third-party purchase, but you can find low profile key caps on Amazon and as long as they are cherry compatible, which like 99.9% of key caps are, you’ll be fine. They’ll sit a little higher because than they would on a low profile keyboard because the Hall effect switches on the Keychron are not low profile so the stems are not shorties like you would find on a true low profile, but if you put low profile key caps on them, I don’t think you’ll really care that you know they’re 4 mm higher up from the board plate then a true low profile cap would be. It doesn’t really make a difference in the typing experience and you wouldn’t even notice unless you’re looking really close.
