The stabs in that picture are for sure PCB mount cherry.

I prefer PCB mount cherry stabs (screw in is nice if you have the option) but plate mount can be easier to disassemble if you ever need to repair them.

Also prefer Cherry stabs as long as they are smooth ones preferably clipped.

Costar are a pain to change keycaps on and even when done properly just feel and sound very rattly and cheap IMO.
