Same, I own a 2014 15" and have a 2018 15" from work. I haven't had any keys break on the 2018 (yet...) and actually prefer the key travel on it to the 2014. The smaller size is an improvement and the dongle situation isn't a problem for my use cases. Not a fan of the keyboard layout and TouchBar, though.

If Apple let me spec a physical ESC key, inverted-T arrow keys, and native 1920x1200 point screen size @2x on the existing form factor I'd be VERY happy. Assuming, of course, the keyboard is actually reliable.

Ditto situation here. My work MacBook has been working great as well - the inability to charge my iPhone without a dongle has been frustrating but hopefully Apple switches out of lightning soon.

As for the ESC key, I rebound my Caps Lock key to Esc & Ctrl. Works great!
