MT3 ABS keycaps have a noticeable texture. It is rougher than the "textured" finished that Signature Plastics uses. Let alone the "smooth" texture that are used in many SA sets. (FYI Signature plastics mentions a polished texture as well, but I've never seen this in the wild. But I digress.)
Some time ago a fellow drop member posted this image comparing SA and MT3. Hopefully you find it useful.

Any switches with Cherry MX style stems, such as of course Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Outemu, etc.

I am also interested in colevrak set!
Is there hope?
How many base/ortho kits have to be sold, so that you will make a colevrak set?

What does it mean that these are doubleshot ABS plastic?

ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is a thermoplastic that is the principle compound in this and the majority of keycaps on the market. As a material it is reasonably tough and resistant (used to make LEGO blocks), and can be made in to a wide varity of colors.
The term doubleshot means that the keycaps are made in a two step process. The legend (aka the letter, number or symbol) is formed in a mold. Then the resulting plastic part is then placed in a second mold and a contrasting color is then molded around it. This a finiky and time intensive process. However the end results is a very durable keycap that will never have the legend worn off with use.
