I bet you'll get dramatically different opinions based upon people who bought it themselves or had work buy it for them. Former have to self justify cost, latter don't.
I am one of latter. The touch bar is garbage. It is less accurate and takes longer than the old media. I rarely use it. I use emaca - try hitting meta-f a few times in a row and tell me that getting rid of the ESC key is not annoying
The new keyboard is garbage. I occasionally open my previous mac and I really miss the keyboard. I have a maxed-out MacBook Pro 15" touch bar. Apple has really screwed up its human interfaces.
