Something that makes the typing experience even as possible like top mount and i guess gasket mount.

Depends on the user.
Some people like top or bottom mount, others like pcb mount, some like any of those with gasket mount.

I take the race car approach, I want the chassis as stiff as possible (using top or bottom mount) then tweak how it feels by tuning the switches and caps (in a race car it would be like tuning the suspension). This is the best way to achieve consistency across the keyboard.
