That’s not on Apple. Intel claims the same TDP for those chips, so they better have comparable thermal behavior. There are no higher-TDP laptop chips.

It is Apple. Apple is the one that builds the enclosures and decides to put more cores on the same enclosure.
Regardless of Intel's claims.
 
The point is manufacturers will not adapt to using USB-C ports anytime soon because they don't have incentive in doing so and it will cost them because they will need to change their manufacturing processes if they change to USB-C port.

There are other professional uses for a laptop other than video editing? I am not against Thunderbolt 3 I am even more than happy having the technology. My only gripe is for a professional laptop, Macbook Pro has very little option for providing connectivity.

This is just not true! You can use adapters or hubs to get the old ports you want. You’re acting as if you can’t connect anything but USB-C devices to them. The adapters are only needed until the transition to USB-C/USB 4.0 is complete.
