While the RAM complaints are valid, I don't know anyone who actually uses their laptop keyboard for serious development. Almost all of these laptops spend 90% of their time docked somewhere with a real keyboard hooked up.

So the touch bar is useless in 90% of the time.

And so is the entire keyboard on the MBP I currently work on. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate it 10% of the time.

The plural of anecdote is not data. I know many people who do use their laptop keyboard, myself included.

For me, the MBP was all about the nice screen, the touchpad, the keyboard, and the build quality. If you are only using it docked, none of these really matter.

An anecdote is a single data point. So numerous anecdotes would, in fact, be data.
