I bet the vast majority of Apple's users don't care about thin-ness as much as their designers do. I continue to stubbornly use a 2011 MBP because that's the last generation that is still very repairable (well, except for the LCD). It also has USB, Firewire 800, MagSafe, and an SD card slot. I really don't care that it's a bit thicker. Thin-ness only really matters to me when I'm sitting on the front row of a Southwest flight, where all carry-ons are required to be stowed in the overhead bins on takeoff and landing. I have a 2016 MBP that fits neatly in the magazine tray against the wall, so I don't have to put it away :-)
