Thanks for the link. And you're right, it seems so essential that those ports feel like they should just be on the device.
> I'd settle for either a physical Escape key in the same position as it was + touch bar, or for a wholly physical set of keys with changeable display (like the Optimus keyboard).
I don't VIM all that much, so the ESC key works fine for me when I need it. It's just that I pretty much ignore the touchbar altogether and haven't found any compelling app or reason to use it. So it just sits there, draining power and costing money.
The trackpad is so large now that I wish that it had been replaced by a more general purpose touchscreen with app specific actions and status directly indicated on it (e.g. "ready to drag", video scrubber + volume control, move the finder there, etc.). It would make the use-cases for the trackpad more discoverable instead of remembering half a dozen gestures, and move space steal gui controls away from apps and down by your hands.
In fact, that entire huge space beneath the keyboard should just be a giant touch screen.
