Cutting magsafe is borderline unforgivable. It was such an elegant solution to a very real problem and now it's gone because all of a sudden, Apple has decided they actually like standards?
All the other stuff, I pretty much agree with you. It's got most people pretty well covered.
"Pros" are just a particularly vocal minority when it comes to ports being removed that maybe 1% of users actually use.
Going back a page, I'm getting fed up with people consistently banging on about the new MBP. So many of the opinions being banded about are based on such specialised needs or edge cases it drives me mad.
I have the 15" base and, touch bar not being something I use much aside, the lightness and speed and screen are excellent, and I personally like the keyboard. As for being on the dongle bus ... I like having one cable entering my machine, either into a 5K monitor (at home), or into the HDMI + USB A + USB C dongle at the office.
As a "pro" who has to carry it into work everyday and around a building, often using without a monitor, it's about the best a laptop could be considering the constraints placed on it.
