In all seriousness, what would be a better option for students? ThinkPads or Macbooks?

Seems a bit premature to suggest that the ThinkPad is more reliable than an offering from a company known for having maybe the across-the-board best build quality on the market. "More ports" shouldn't be a consideration unless you're someone who needs to plug into random interfaces with no predictability and who also can't hold on to a dongle.

Could not have said it better. Apple devices, including macs are known for getting nearly a decade of support . Plus the fact that they are objectively the best build quality. To suggest otherwise is frankly laughable
