If I was forced to nominate a single laptop I would say Acer Aspire 7, 
AMD Ryzen 5-5500U, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Nvidia GTX 1650

This is because it has the right drive type and memory type so it can be 
upgraded where it matters. It's also reasonably mature so not so pricey 
and has had time for linux drivers to be developed.

This does not exclude countless other options which will certainly be 
better on some criteria.

NB I don't have this device and have chosen it only on the reputation of 
Acer and the documented upgrade path.
