To add what's sure to be a minority view, I prefer the Air. But a couple of caveats. First, as a web developer my programming is not CPU intensive. Second, I have a laptop mainly so I can shuttle back and forth between home and work, and at both locations I have external displays and keyboards. That makes the laptop display (and touchbar) mostly irrelevant. Benefits of the Air are price, portability (I bike, so light weight is great), and easy connections with my Apple displays (MagSafe + Thunderbolt). Air also has better keyboard and more flexible ports)
