I hate the lack of function keys. I hate the lack of touch typing support. It's a huge, glaring issue.

Unfortunately for you, you're in the minority. The Touch Bar is infinitely more useful than unlabelled function keys.

All laptop keyboards are awful, and they encourage horrible posture. If you’re going to do extended typing in a fixed position, get an external keyboard monitor. The laptop keyboard should be for short term, mobile use only.

Buy the i5 air, it's a great little dev machine if you have access to some remote horsepower.
