Flaretech switches plate swap

[mannoso]

Does anyone know if it is possible to mount Flaretech switches on a standard plate made for Cherry switches?

It is not. To restrict switch orientation, the switch housings have a knob that goes into an additional notch in the plate's mounting hole.

Edit: I measured. Other than the notch, the holes are 14.0×14.0 mm, with plate surface 5 mm over the PCB. So, a universal plate for Cherry MX and Flaretech would be possible, and you would be able to mod a Cherry MX plate for Flaretech by filing notches: 3mm wide 2/3 mm deep.
May I ask why?

Thanks for the reply. I'm not a big fan of the floating keys design of the Wooting one keyboard, so I would have placed switches and pcb in a tkl Cooler Master case,
