I can't wait to get my hands on my 16 inch 10 core 32 GPU core 16 neuro core 64 GB ram monster coming in less than a week. I've pre-ordered it last month, and am currently on my iMac as I sold my old 16 inch, and I can sense the productivity boost it will afford me, particularly in my field of work which is machine learning modelling and architectures. At least for the prototyping of models, the macbook will be an absolute game changer.
And those function keys, they are back and so they should have always been mechanical.
