I'm in the same boat. I bought a new MBP several months ago and I'd be surprised if I've used the Touch ID or Touchbar more than a dozen times. I don't travel much these days, and I can't seem to focus on work unless I'm at my desk, so my laptop is more or less permanently connected to its power brick, 2 external monitors, and an external keyboard and mouse (which probably explains why I haven't had many qualms about the purportedly bad MBP keyboard).

I think I would've bought the equivalent Mac mini had it been out at the time I got my MBP. Would've saved me about $1,200, while seeming to offer many more ports, more options for self-upgrade, while taking up less desk space. My main hesitation is the lack of discrete GPU, but I suppose that's not much of a concern with the Mac's support for external GPUs.
