i agree with the distinction of the pro, but the aluminum macbook was a great product, and i think that they ought to continue that, but adding more features to the 13" pro to make the distinction
No. It was not great. It lacked FireWire.
I don't understand all this harping on about Firewire (or the lack of it). What do people use it for anyway? Surely everything it does will be replicated (or replaced) by a new technlogy, potentially something in the update to MacBook Pro line this year? Won't USB 3.0 make it redundant anyway....
People use it for low latency audio and for better sustained data transfer speeds to external storage etc. (As well as video camera connectivity).
There's a reason Apple added it back in after the initial unibody Macbook gaff.

...no they didn't. The aluminum unibody Macbook didn't have firewire and the current plastic unibody macbook doesn't have firewire.
So apple has their 13 macbook pro priced at about 200 dollars more than the plastic macbook, so i think that for durability and aesthetics shouldn't the macbook be made out of aluminum?
