I'm missing the relevance here? Are you just trying to point out that MacBooks are also imperfect?
I had a 2017 as well. And before that a 2013. And since then a 2019 16-inch and a 2020 M1. Yes, the 2017 sucked balls in ways that I can't even begin to count. The 2013 was f*cking flawless. I've similarly had almost zero problems with the 2019 16-inch MBP or my 2020 M1. There's just something especially crappy about the 2017s, and I doubt you'd find many people who'd seriously disagree about that.
Yep the 2017 was bad. The 2013s were very good, but the 2019 16-inch... I had 3 replacements and it still sucked; it got so hot I could bake pizzas on it and no matter how Apple tried to blame me (my usage patterns), when I got to the store they couldn't make it stop and replaced it. My friends (not of great statistical value, I know) had exactly the same issues. In the end I got the m1 (not pro) and it is actually cold all the time which is unpleasant on the wrists in winter. I don't use my laptop for very intensive things; even my programming stuff doesn't take a lot of power so I have no clue why the 19 kept blowing up, but I read online it's a pretty common issue.
