I use the small iPad Pro, even the MacBook Air doesn’t come close in terms of weight and form factor. I did use the tiny MacBook Air, and I’d love a 12” MacBook, but they no longer exist.
On top of that, the combination of iPad, pen and paperlike screen protector is really nice for taking notes. The option to undock from the keyboard and just take the tablet is also nice.
I agree that it’s worse on pretty much every other metric and that it’s an optimization for one specific metric, but it’s workable.
And plugged into a decent screen, it’s pretty ok for most office tasks.
