I’ve been wondering about this for a long time, too. They could cram a 14" screen into a 13" casing. So much wasted screen space. The only theory I could come up with: They do not want reduce bezel size because this potentially closes the door for making the laptop lid thinner. As we all know by now, thinness has top priority at Apple. A super thin lid means there cannot be support structure and connectors behind the screen, they must be placed around it. But you cannot place it around it if there is no bezel to hide it beneath. If the Apple MacBook hardware guys read this: I’d rather have the current laptop lid thickness and no bezels than a paper thin lid with the current large ugly bezels.
