In what situation should I get the MacBook Air over the MacBook Pro ? I currently have the Pro but I am open to getting the Air. (alien.top)

I really only use my laptop for studying, school work, watching videos of lectures which causes the laptop to heat up pretty hot.

The heating up would be my biggest concern.

I am also on my laptop 10 hours a day for studying.

Would a MacBook Air be okay with these concerns or should I get the Pro ?

The M2 Air with 16GB of RAM can do most things where MacOS isn't blocked. Any social science, history, math, medical studies, journalism, philosophy, English literature are fine to use a Macbook.

College engineering programs that use software that doesn't work on MacOS, Power BI, Azure cloud, c# programming, or heavy-duty GPU tasks are the only limitations.
