It's pretty difficult to have an informed opinion about a product that you've never seen/used/tested/tried.
Due to the requirements for a shopping appointment at an Apple Store (hard to come by, if you check online), and due to social distancing, it's fairly unlikely that a person who hasn't bought/received an M1 machine can have an informed opinion about it -- especially so soon after the release.
That's why I take the hype regurgitation with a grain of salt. Has nothing to do with buying the right to have an opinion.
