These same people have clearly never tried using a laptop long-term with just the touchscreen. It's painful, not just in the figurative sense that desktop operating systems were not designed for touchscreens (even Windows which attempted a hybrid model, is still crap), but in the literal sense that holding your arm up all day to use it gets really tiring, really fast. Even convertible formats suffer the same problems, they often end up bulky and are never really a good replacement for either a tablet or a proper laptop.

Arguably, Apple's already got that market covered with the iPad and Magic Keyboard. I think we would sooner see an iPad SKU running macOS than any MacBook going to a convertible style.
