I would pay the same amount for a Linux laptop that worked as easily as a MBP and had similar build quality, performance and battery life.
Howver, whatever crazy-stable and easy to use and well supported hypothetical Linux this is wouldn’t be compatible with my “real” Linux use cases so I would then also install Arch or whatever and live with constantly borked everything and just swap between my Arch “Dev” OS and my “Linux Mac” business/work/consumer OS.
Current Linux cannot be made “MacOS”-stable. But maybe in 5 years.
