I've actually never seen anyone use a MacBook with it closed.

For a start you've lost a useful screen. And the thermal performance must be awful.

The exhaust on MBPs is positioned such that it blows out the bottom of the screen’s hinge when closed.

I have two 27” monitors in my office, and using the MBP’s screen just does not feel useful to me... and yes, I have tried using it on more than one occasion.
