It may be an 'older model' but it's only from 2019. It's only one year behind the current 16" MBP. So I think comparing a 2 year old top of the line, maxed out

It may be an 'older model' but it's only from 2019. It's only one year behind the current 16" MBP. So I think comparing a 2 year old top of the line, maxed out MBP to a current lowest end entry level MBP, and see the low end model blow away the high end maxed out beast, is a reasonable thing to be impressed with.
