To add and reiterate your list, the MBP can still upgrade/update:The chips might not but WiFi 6E is a game changer for crowded WiFi environments. The HDMI port is also still crippled and unable to output 120Hz (though I suspect we won't see this change till Thunderbolt 5)
Even still a 10-15% performance improvement is nothing to sneeze at.
