I know a few people who have the Logitech MX Keys Mini and really like it as a keyboard that's good for primary use but is small enough to be portable.

Logitech also has an MX Mechanical Mini though I don't know anyone who uses it. I use a Logitech K860 Ergo and I really like it but it's quite large.

The big question IMO is if they're used to using their laptop keyboard now is a full mechanical keyboard with very clicky switches going to be too big a change from what they're used to. As you say the mechanical keyboard world is like a whole subculture unto itself and might be unnecessarily complicated when you just want something that's good, not something with a specific actuation force and distance and sound.
