You don't really see fingerprints on the eink screen. Plus when you do want to clean the screen, it cleans a lot easier then LCD.

May be true, but I'm guessing your statement "they base their dislike" is your own speculation, not the result of an actual survey. Some people I know have other reasons for liking keyboards. Personally I hardly ever use mine but I have friends who are avid players of Kindle games and puzzles that require lots of typing, like Scrabble and NYT Crosswords. A physical keyboard makes this easier than having to bring up the on-screen version.
