Most people using a portable for Final Cut Pro (which is a small niche
market) are doing so to be able to quickly edit video when "out in the
field", hence no external display.

Of course the reason Apple dropped the 17" model is that most people
found it too bulky and heavy to be easily "portable", and the speed /
power of the CPUs were virtually the same in the top-end 15" model
anyway. The new Retina MacBook Pros does have more pixels than the old
17" non-Retina display ... although everything in re-written
applications is "twice" the size so that it still looks the same size
on screen.
