OK, the obvious thing to do is make sure its covered by years
of warranty and shaft them on that when the lettering has worn
enough so that its not usable anymore on some of the keys.

And buy it locally from an operation thats going to be around
for that long, to make it easy to shaft them on the warranty.

Our consumer law makes the seller legally liable in the first instance.
You can choose to use the manufacturer/importer if you want to.
