Kidding aside, I now feel like taking Zazu and my keyboard apart so I can solder their defective USB3 sockets and LEDs respectively.
Acquiring the USB3 sockets is one near-impossible task (the only way I can get these is by ordering them online, but I have no means of online payment), but those damn LEDs are pretty much undoable - I'd have to see what the specifications are on these LEDs, and I don't wanna send it back to Ducky so they can repair it, because shipping keyboards is expensive, and I can't live without this keyboard, even for a couple dozen hours.
And then there's the whole thing with me chickening out every time I see SMD-like distances between pins.
