Apple has said that they explicitly are not using the chassis to cool the chips as that would transfer too much heat to the human operator. They didn't "forget the heatsink". This MBA was design for tasks and usage that most of us do that do not involve simultaneous FCP renders of 8K video and 3D rendering. If you are doing that, you might want to look at the MB Pro. The rest of us don't need to worry about it.
