> all for a Touchbar no one wants and 0.5mm cut in thickness.
I second this. It's been years now, and I still don't really see TouchBar as indispensable. Not enough apps make special use of it yet.
I don't care as much about thinness either. I just want something that works where I can replace or add RAM and storage myself.
As for magsafe, you can get a 3rd party replacement if you're willing to spend $50.
The only reason I stayed is because of MacOS, but current Apple hardware has gone into a weird direction. It's harder and harder to stay when Windows now ships with Linux.
