I want my ports back. I want the same ports on the iphone as on the macbook. No one cares about the damn touch bar. No one cares to have another few tenths of a mm shaved off the thickness.
Apple's marketing department cares.
But does it have a USB port?
I've yet to find a monitor that "just works" with my MBP. I'll take whatever they release. My LG is nice, but often gets confused about when my laptop is plugged in. Both of my Dells are ok, but randomly lose signal and can't control the volume from the Apple keyboard or from the OS. It would also be nice to not need a docking station and or adapter anymore.

unplugging and re-plugging the mDP cable doesn't help, I have to reboot the laptop to get the screen to turn on (Dell U2415)

I do. (To be fair, it's why I use a MacBook Air.)
Apple's R&D department also does. Miniaturization is still a trend. By pushing the envelope on the iPhone they were well positioned for watches.

All I wanted was to stick the laptop under my desk and run a keyboard, a mouse, two monitors, speakers and an external hard drive off of a single USB-C port and that one small change to silence the monitor's "wake-up beep" made a huge difference in the experience.

I can plug in my Galaxy S8 to the MBP via the... power cable(male-male USB-C), but can't do the same with my SO's iPhone SE. My phone came with a USB to USB-C adapter so now I can plug in the mouse as well.
I'm living the one-port-to-rule-them-all dream with my ancient Google phone, and I find it weird that even current-gen iPhones still required a weird proprietary Lightning cable.
At CES, "Samsung Unveil[ed a] 15.6-Inch Ultra-HD OLED Display for Laptops," https://www.anandtech.com/show/13896/samsung-unveils-15-6-in... . I wonder if Apple is going to round 15.6 inches up and call it 16".
The current MacBook Pros are 15.4” and 13.3”.
