I think the new MacBook pro is actually a really great move... it was just not sold properly.

-USB-C can replace HDMI -Touch bar uses watchOS -The touch bar is actually much better than full touchscreen since lifting your arm up all day to the screen is much more effort and will smudge your display. They didn't sell the possibilities of a dynamic portion of your keyboard

-I'm not sure about removing the magsafe port, but I'm sure I won't miss it once I get used to not having it
