I avoided the entire butterfly keyboard/touch bar Macbooks by buying an older model (2015 MacBook pro, the last one with scissor switch until 2020) and not upgrading until M series. That turned out to be a good decision.
That's what I did as well, I waited until the touch bar and the butterfly keyboard were out of the flow and got a really fantastic MacBook Pro with touch ID. Dare I say it works better than my iphone.
