?? Sure I know that. Besides having lived it repeatedly, the analysis is butt-stupid easy.
E.g. my 2016 MBP bought in 2017 to save ~$1200 no longer takes the latest OS (which I prefer, to best synch with my other devices), while the 2017 MBP wpuld take the latest OS.

Simple analysis immediately tells us that the life of an M1 box is a year less than that of an M2 box: e.g. 2-5 years versus 3-6 years (every user being different of course, but all lose a year). In addition to the year shorter life cycle, for most buyers $500 is not remotely enough money to justify being intentionally a tech generation behind for the lifetime of a new MBP.

Just my (well informed) $0.02.

P.S. Note that I did not say do not sometimes buy year-old tech. I said get a better deal than a paltry $500 to justify the shorter life cycle and forever being a year behind. I did when I bought my now EOL 2016 MBP in 2017.
