The vast majority of the time I use my MacBook Pro 2017 with two external displays and a mechanical keyboard. Personally, I find the Touch Bar more of an annoyance than an awesome feature, especially when typing while laying down (accidentally hit it a lot). There's no such thing as a modern, lightweight, portable laptop with a good keyboard, so for me it's not really an issue.

I had a Razer Blade that I thought was a modern, lightweight, portable laptop with a good keyboard, until I figured out that they only last like 6 months without contracting a variety of annoying issues.

So I resorted back to a MacBook Pro 2017 (sans-touchbar) that I use with a similar setup to yours so the keyboard isn't too much of an issue.
