Well, tests and experience tell us that it is a very powerful notebook. And the screen itself quite a powerful tablet.

There's a reason why Apple uses ARM on their tablets. x86 just uses too much power and requires better cooling. If Apple used ARM on their laptops though, they'd be pretty much killing x86 software compatibility.

Cooling, yes, I wish SB2 had a better cooling. But certainly I do not use it as much as I use desktop. So, Apple is supposed to offer something better.

Also, you're ignoring the software side. iOS apps were designed with touchscreen devices in mind and it took years before we got the wealth of iPad-optimized apps available in the App Store. If and when Apple ever decides to merge their laptop and tablet product line, there's bound to be teething pains.

Surely, there are growth challenges
The only point is not to say why we cannot, to complain and to find the excuses for not doing it, but to try to find the way how to do it. This is approx. what Steve Job used to say
No need to replace anything, but to add. So, Microsoft also has its own other regular notebook models, and other regular tablets models.
