Generally the MacBook Air is incredible and what I generally recommend. If somebody is doing 'more' then it's the MBP. Now with the Neo I even have a recommendation for price sensitive people who may have otherwise gotten a cheap Windows device filled with crapware.
I think these are all different markets - $1k seems like a small amount for the MBA but it's too much for quite a few people.

I professionally edit tens of thousands of very large RAW photos, edit 4K video all day long, write, web and very light dev work.
All that on a used M1 air. Still the fastest computer I’ve ever used.
The pro is so insanely powerful there really are only devs (and maybe only ai devs) who need it.
