If the 2012 MacBook is still good, then you should keep using it. When you're ready to upgrade, you will see that the new touch bar is just as good as the function keys, if not better. I used them every day.

I have a newer MacBook too (work issued) so I have some experience using the touchbar. Two things I dislike about it -- the cannot mindlessly adjust the volume, I have to use the slider. Also as aforementioned, pressing the touchbar esc key is unsatisfying. Makes escaping in vim feel perilous.
