I like mechanical keyboards and the likes with a lot of key travel. So not a fan of these laptop keyboards. That and cost and availability too. That keyboard does not appear to be available on my country...
Fair, although I used to prefer the old chonky Thinkpad keyboards to anything else. There was (is?) a Model M style buckle spring keyboard with a trackpoint, but it had the numeric pad, so no good to you.
I guess one could do a project-keyboard and add a trackpoint to it. I don't know if you'd have to macgyver it up, or if there's something you can buy as a package for the trackpoint. That would be fun. One could even do a 40% version with it and damn the RSI :)

Maybe give this a look? https://tex.com.tw/products/shinobi
I am aware of this existing. But it is costly, not easily available, and looks huge, compared to a compact TKL mechanical keyboard.
