I've owned every Mac Pro with the exception of the 2019. I bought them because I wanted to be able to easily expand RAM and storage without having to use external enclosures. Apple doesn't seem able or willing to allow this anymore on their systems since everything is either part of the SoC, or hardwired to the system board. The new Mac Pro does allow you to add either NVME chips (at an incredible cost) or NVME cards in the PCI slots.
So as soon as the new Mac Pro was announced at WWDC, I did a quick check on the diff between it and the Mac Studio and instantly bought the Studio. I've had it for 2 weeks and it's been fantastic. Although I loved the old flexibility, part of that's gone, and part of it is just not worth the price Apple wants. And Apple has just pushed this price way above the value. Now that the performance is the same, they've limited the market dramatically.
