.... I just don't see a compelling case for Apple to sell a surface like tablet/laptop.

So, you have two devices: macbook pro which you no longer carry with yourself, because it added the extra weight. So, you turned to 12.9 device, which does not have that weight.
Now, consider the following: at home or work you continued to use macbook pro, but then instead of buying a separate devices, what you'd have to do was simply to deattach the sceen/tablet from the "macbook pro" and carry that anywhere. And then when you needed more processor/video power, you attached it back and used it as the regular notebook.
Simple logic. Crystal clear.
In Surface Book 2 the keyboard has some processor or additional video card power inbuilt, so it is like a more powerful notebook. But with it I do not need the additional tablet, I just remove the screen/tablet from the keyboard, and it is fully functional standalone stuff.
I need the same for Mac, with Macs display quality and processing power in certain tasks.
