Doesn't even have enough switches for a transplant,
There are easy substitutes. Specs for Alps switches are deceiving.
White and blue have nearly identical specifications. I have done blue Alps transplants with a handful of the lesser-used keys done in white, and you never know the difference if you are only pressing the key rarely.
Likewise, blacks are an entirely adequate substitute or fill-in for orange/salmon/pink.
I would recommend against mixing clicky and non-clicky keys, however. I have done it and it is disorienting. The only possible exception would be a small number of clicks in very specific places such as numlock or F2.

“No political truth is of greater intrinsic value, or is stamped with the authority of more enlightened patrons of liberty: The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands .… may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” —James Madison, Federalist 47
“All the powers of government, legislative, executive, and judiciary, result to the legislative body. The concentrating of these in the same hands, is precisely the definition of despotic government. An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one .... in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” — Thomas Jefferson, commentary on Federalist 48
