Precisely.
I use it undocked very rarely, to the point that those hardware advantages are irrelevant.
The downsides are still there when docked however (the horrible glossy screen and the awful OS I have to handle).

Do you use full screen windows ?
I think macOS has the worst window management of any major OS especially for power users. It's so bad that buying a half dozen third party apps to "fix" the UX disaster that is macOS has basically been normalized.
I don't like any touchpad so even if a MacBook touchpad is better it's still just the best worst method for mouse input.
I think Apple makes nice hardware though. But I also work docked basically 99% of the time and use it as a desktop replacement so many of the Apple hardware advantages are moot for me. I'm kind of shocked when I see people voluntarily working on a laptop undocked. Working with a crappy keyboard, a crappy touchpad, and a small screen is torture to me even if it's the best crappy keyboard, the best crappy touchpad, and the best small screen.
