Analysts across the globe believe that the Butterfly tech will be surrendered and the old scissor keyboards will take its place, it is also expected that future laptop line-up of Apple would follow the suit by mid 2020.

Laptops with the modern Butterfly tech, was implemented to give users a design assuring light weight that was not possible earlier. The trend started with the MacBook (12 inch) that was launched in 2015. But soon, complaints started pouring in and the new design started giving trouble.
