I hate this trend of dumbing down product specifications. I don't know who started it (probably Apple?), but everyone does it now. Like what fucking i5 or i7 processor ? Is the storage soldered even for the nvme option ? It doesn't help that Intel keeps playing tricks with their naming either. i7 used to be quad core, then it became dual core for thin laptops. Now they are back to low freq quad core in some SKUs. For a $1k-$2k device which is supposed to be the pinnacle of science with billions of transistors, they spend all of the 20 minutes they have on stage showing puppy and kid pictures.
