I can nab the same 16gb/256gb specs on a used/refurb Macbook Air M1 -- a machine that sips power, has a MUCH nicer keyboard and trackpad, is thinner, and has a very nice 2560x1600 16:10 display.
I've seen better deals than this one, but one of the advantages of a corporate laptop is usually replaceable parts
And if a machine did have a battery failure prematurely, time to call up the warranty department and get them to replace it! That's why all of our machines have 3-5 service contracts on them.
No touch screen -- GREAT! I don't like poking around at my screen, smudging it up with finger prince so I have to keep wiping it clean. The last dumpster fire that "needed" touch in a desktop OS was Windows 8. We don't need any more of those! Leave them in the past! Touch is almost fine on mobile (I keep hearing people wish they still had styluses and physical keyboards from yesteryear).
MacOS -- ah, now I see it. You're a Microsoft stockholder, right? MacOS is just as capable of a commercial OS as everything else. Each has their pros and cons, but they all do 99% of the same things. Irrational fanboyism for/against an OS is....well, not normal for a professional to have.
And honey, I've been dealing with corporate laptops for several decades now. If something is genuinely broken.... they don't get repaired, they get replaced. We ship them out (or have them come to us) with whatever warranty contract they're under. It's literally not worth our time Mickey Mousing around with some esoteric hardware issue or catastrophic failure that'll need 1-2 hours to fiddle around with 200 bespoke screws and ribbon cables and epoxy. Having one of our techs work on that is a COLOSSAL waste of corporate money and time, when they could be doing literally ANYTHING ELSE that's more productive. Especially when literally everything in production is mandated to be under a service warranty (for insurance reasons).
Also, I run Debian on my laptop. Don't even have Microsoft installed

Not listed as touch, but check the service tag. It's touch. Slapped mint on to it and run it on an external monitor when I need it.

Why, doesn't your semi-disposable Windows laptop have the same quality of customer support? I'm sure they're just as flexible as that device's keyboard! 🤣
