6-core HT i5 @ 3.0 GHz+ < No SKU from Intel matches this, there are no desktop i5s with Hyper-threading (7/8/9th gen). You'd have to go for a 8th gen i7 to get this (i7 8700), 9th Gen i7s no longer have HT, only i9s.
16GB RAM < Agreed, but this is Apple, it would ship with 8GB.
512GB storage on one 1.5GB/s module < Why so slow? Cheap NVMe drives are in the 2500MB/s write range.
Radeon Pro Vega 20 < Why a mobile GPU? This is a desktop, put in a bog standard Vega Radeon VII (has 16GB HBM2). Even better if they waited a few months for the next gen Navi AMD chips based on the 7nm process.
4 USB 3.0 ports < At the very least these should be USB 3.1 Gen 2
2 TB3 ports < Why just 2? Just do what they did with the Mac Mini, that has 4 type C ports. 8 ports (4 type A and 4 Type C would be great).
Gigabit Ethernet < I should hope so. That along with WIFI 6 would make it awesome.
