Your MacBook Pro definitely needs that dGPU for at least one reason: external displays.
Any software developer who cherishes their health uses a proper keyboard and mouse as often as they can, and that setup lends itself to using an external screen, too.
If you do frontend work, your external display should also have HiDPI – if only to give you a chance to notice when you introduce bugs or regressions for 2x/3x users.
I believe a dGPU is required for the MBP to drive an external screen with such a resolution at decent frame rates.
