Let's assume that:
  • a PRO user is a user for whom 75% of the time spent at the computer is related to his main ocupation,
  • a general user is a user who uses a laptop on an everyday basis, but mainly for things not related to work.

In the poll I voted Pro escape + inverted T + FN keys. However, I'll add that I haven't had a TouchBar. If Intellij and Xcode work well with it, it may be fine as well if I can keep a physical escape key like the new 16. Most importantly, the refactoring shortcuts in Intellij (that's a programming IDE :))
