If they make a monitor that is a hub then it starts to make sense. Basically the MBP is the brains and taps into the other hardware via USB. Then you end up with one or two cables connected to the MBP and everything else to the dock/monitor. When you need to go, you unplug and go. Since you are paying for iCloud storage and it has your Desktop and Documents folder synced you have everything you need to go with you. If you don't have WiFi where you are going then you surely have an iPhone and will share it's hotspot.

No need for a "desktop" Mac because it's all in the MBP and now mobile too. Use an iPad if you really want to be mobile and don't need all the power. Heck, given the push to USB-C I will be shocked if the next wave of iOS devices don't have USB-C instead of lightning.
