Copying my comment on the Reddit thread for visibility...
First of all, I'm in love with how this looks rendered on that MB44. 🤤
Although (and I don't necessarily think the current color should be thrown out completely, it is your set)...
I personally think this would look much better all-around with mods-matched spacebars! Please, at least give it a shot in some renders before dismissing the idea - but I think it would add a clean, natural frame around the alphas this way. I think the current configuration of Dark Blurple bars next to the Black mods is a bit too close in shade, breaking the otherwise consistent gradient & direction in a way that's kind of, for lack of a better word... "annoying" in the peripheral vision? Idk, just seems like the choice was an afterthought...
Could call it an "(Un)accent Kit" too, which is sorta neat.
I actually do like the subtle-separation of color when used here as split-spacebars, and specifically on a small 40. But another potentially more interesting option for a real accent split-bars kit; keep the Dark Blurple minibars for left-spacebar as it matches the ASD-columns, but use the shade of Blue used in the JKL-column for right-spacebar! The color gradient is perfectly aligned for this already, it'd be a shame to pass up such a convenient opportunity & would also spare another solid gradient set from the cruel punishment of gaudy gradient-matching accent bars!
