I need a second "working slouched out on the couch" small, light laptop I think. MBP 16" is too big heavy for anything except docked or proper work surface/armchair use, iPad Pro is lousy for typing on a couch since attached keyboards need a surface.

Actually... is there an actually good iPad Pro keyboard case/folio thingie that attaches sturdily enough to use in awkward positions like lounged out on a couch? Last time I had the magnetic "magic" case it was really flimsy, and the other folio thing I had kinda cracked.

Either an iPad Pro with a sturdily attachable keyboard, or a macbook air with touch screen would do the trick. I think Microsoft Surface actually cracked this form factor properly but then it's a microsoft environment.

I don't really want a fourth computing device (phone, ipad, MBP)... so if I can make the iPad truly work as a typing device, that would be ideal.

every so often I'm tempted to try the super-light plasticy ~11" Chromebooks -- closest thing we have to the old netbook concept

I have long kept a Chromebook around, good to throw in purse for random in-passing email session or whatever, they're all fine, I just buy whatever's popular on Amazon at the time for a few hundred
