Every single laptop does this, except bulky Lenovos. Is it really too hard to use both hands? How many times a day do you open your laptop anyway? Let alone wit

  Nah, even the lightest macbooks can be opened with one hand. Has a useful notch in the bottom case too so grip isn't a problem. It's not a big deal at all, I certainly wouldn't list it as a reason to not get a laptop like your parent comment does; it probably wouldn't even factor in to my decision. But it's certainly not a problem in all thin-and-lights.

Not consistent with my experience handling an ex's 11" macbook air. That thing would lift the chassis from a table readily when tilting the screen using one hand. But it's not some apple-specific phenomenon. Even my chonky X230 with good hinges does this esp. when on carpet with the extended battery, there's no weight under the palmrest.
