I think there’s a max size battery you can put in laptops before you’re not allowed to bring your laptop on a plane. It’s either 80Wh or 100Wh. So manufacturers can only stuff so much battery into that space.

In practice, external batteries are so cheap these days and easier than ever to charge your laptop from with usb-c, it's less of an issue than it used to be. It certainly holds up with phones and smaller devices, though. I'd think the best argument for a thicker MBP would be greater cooling potential anyway.

  This is also what the 16-inch MacBook Pro has, so even if they find some empty space inside it after Apple Siliconing it, there's really no going up battery-wise anymore.
