The 16GB limitation is very understandable: Skylake not supporting LPDDR4, how many times this should be repeated?

Doesn't change the fact that people who want more RAM can't get it.
There are many people (including me) who don't care much about battery runtime. I mean seriously, a longer battery runtime than a typical work day? How many people work all day without access to a power socket?
If Apple wouldn't have waited so long and made an interim update, there would maybe not be so much gnashing of teeth. If you buy a MBP now, it will probably be good for another 4 years and you can't justify buying a new one with better CPU and RAM specs which might come out in 1 or 2 years.

Great to see that their longevity now counts against them.
