Just get a Dell XPS developer edition. It is what an MBP is supposed to be but actually delivers for roughly the same price or less depending on configuration.

The click pad and keyboard are far superior too.

Except for the nostril cam, and the greasy palm rest... and coil whine...

Fwiw the coil whine is apparently fixed in newer generations.

Oddly enough it has gone completely away on my 2017 model. I can only guess a firmware upgrade fixed it, which is probably unlikely. Or getting jossled around in my backpack got it aligned?
