Help: Decision before purchase 2020 Macbook

Hi communities:

I will buy new Macbook sometime next week, my old 2013 Macbook Pro 15" is starting to act up, and are in process trading in. I am not able to reach to sales department to help me with decision before I could buy either new Macbook Air or Macbook pro 13". Yes I have done some research on both and it come very hard to decide which one. I am creating list of pro and cons on both and a list of what I usually and will use on Macbook. To those communities, I am asking you to help me with decisions on. Thank you!

Air - Pro:

Light, thin, easy to carry around

Latest processor

Price - i7(10 gen cpu) with 16gb ram still cheaper than 13"

Con:

Limit or slow on heavy programs ex: video editing, photo editing, etc...

Slow gaming?

poor external monitor?

13" Macbook pro - Pro:

Not lightest, but thin enough and able carry around

Latest processor i5 (10th gen cpu) with 16gb ram

Powerful for heavy programs

Gaming

Longer battery than Air (by one more hour longer)

Con:

little heavier

i5 processor (10 gen) with 16gb ram

Price about 200 more than Air

List of daily use on Macbook:

Many tabs in internet browser

Microsoft Office and iWork

Coding - Terminals, Sublime Text, Atoms

secured VPN networks

Movie/Netflix/Hulu/etc...

External monitor

Occasional use of video edit and photo editing

Travel often, hiking often, so light is good for me (my old Macbook 15" is pretty heavy)

Question or Concerns that out on internet have no answer on:

-Quality on external monitor running on 2020 Macbook Air

-Old Macbook Air run pretty hot when watching movie or Netflix, etc.... Sometimes shuts down. Will that have same issue with new Macbook Air?

-Air with i7 cpu (10 gen) with 16gb and 512ssd storage for $1600, compare with 13" i5 cpu (10 gen) with 16gb and 512gb storage for $1800. Which run better? (Out there only talk about i5... nothing talks about i7).

Anything else you want add or other idea that would help me. Much appreciated! :)

Thank you,
