> Sales of the Touch Bar MBPs surpassed the sales

It would be fair to mention, that if you wanted the not-the-weakest-CPU or more than 2 USB ports, you had to get the touch bar version.

It would be fair to mention, if any consumers ( which far out number professionals ) that wanted a Macbook but dont want a silly 12" screen would need to get a Macbook Pro.

And just to Mention, the report does not spilt between Touch Bar and Non Touch Bar. And we already know most premium prices notebook goes to Apple. That means Apple would have sold just as much if they didn't had the TouchBar.

There is Data, and how you interpret that data.

Every other laptop manufacturer on earth had the opportunity to put together a computer with the not-weakest-cpu and more than USB ports without a touchbar.

isn't the only viable competition to a MacBook pro is a Lenovo Carbon X1...which is equally expensive ?

The XPS 15/13 is viable competition imho.
