I really don't need that much extra memory or performance, I thoroughly dislike the touch bar, and I want a slimmer/lighter form factor. My at-home hobby work is in Golang and Python, and not particularly compute-intensive stuff. Neither of those have huge heavy toolchains. Really the main thing driving an upgrade from my minimum-spec 2015 Air is the Retina display.
