Do you really need more horsepower than an M2 MacBook Air? Perhaps the Pros are better for GPU based workflows

I'm planning to keep it for 5-6 years so I think I need M2 pro

Pretty sure an M2 Air will also last 5-6 years but there will probably be a performance decrease, so yeah

The Pro has a better screen and connectivity as well, which will be good in the long term

linux is only really needed if you do stuff with the command line, which I try to avoid
