Why yes, companies should just eat a 104% tax for the mere privilege to put a keyboard or any other product of China in the hands of a US resident. The only companies that could survive any burden-sharing arrangement better than 20/80 are those cheap and unsafe Amazon products that don't work, or are near monopolies and screwing you one way or another.
