The trend towards ever thinner and lighter devices is stupid. I would much rather have a thicker laptop if it means I get ethernet, multiple usb-A ports, full-size hdmi/displayport, an sdcard reader, and an optical drive, than something that's ultra thin and sleek but only has a couple usb-C ports and requires a million dongles.
Buy a ThinkPad. They still make 10lb beasts with 3 m.2 slots and a dedicated GPU!
You can still get chunky laptops, they're just inconvenient to haul around.
