> Apple don't make the LG Ultrafine Display.
But they did make monitors. And Routers. And other things that people bought into. Because Apple "just works." But now it doesn't.
> Apple still make amazing 5120×2880, 10-bits-per-channel screens: The Retina iMacs. If your business depends on such screens, you'd get the iMacs
iMacs are not replacements for MBP + Apple's monitors.
> Why?
Because the previous models have features and capabilities that the new ones do not that they prefer.
> Like? What complaints specifically?
For example, the touch bar button activating not when someone wants the touch buttons to activate. Specifically the latest case, I had a friend joke about how he's changed the background color of his terminal so many time since moving to the latest MBP. That's just one example.
> They have some of the...
shrug I know what I see. Sorry, but running scripts side by side with an older MBP compared to the latest MBP, the older one won hands down.
> I use it daily
And you weren't clued into the GPs remark about the touch screen? You honestly couldn't figure it out?
> They've also outsold all other competitors in just a single month.
And just because others like something, that means it's good for me?

Specifically the latest case, I had a friend joke about how he's changed the background color of his terminal so many time since moving to the latest MBP. That's just one example. I would just like to say that that's BS. You have to be very deliberate to change the Terminal window color: It takes a tap on a specific button to bring up the color picker, then you have to lift your finger to the slider and move it, or keep your finger held on the Touch Bar for a second then slide it around without lifting it to choose from a palette. It's not something that can be done accidentally, as it takes multiple specific actions in a row. If you still keep fumbling it "so many times" then you can always customize the Touch Bar and just remove the offending buttons.
