If they make it notched they can equally well not make it at all.

If there is no notch on the iPad why would there be a notch on a MacBook? the screen borders are big enough to accommodate the cameras...

Well, somebody once came up with a sick idea of having a notch and rounded screen corners on iPhones, so the same person can now do it to MacBooks, right?

completely different situation. On an iPhone the notch exists to increase screen area availability in a limited size device.
On a Mac there is no such need and a notch would not be possible because on the top of the screen there is always a menu bar which cannot be divided... so a notch would have no purpose.
