No idea, I tried out the one at the Microsoft store and it sucked. Maybe they have different models.

There are function keys, you just have to hit the fn key to get them. That is perfectly fine for me.

The stylus on the surface pro kind of sucks for art though. Compare it to an Apple Pencil or Wacom. Now if the stylus was better I would agree.

It has a trackpad what are you talking about?

I am a dev and will have zero issues with the new function key setup.

It's too under powered to be a laptop and too big/heavy to be a good tablet. Pass.
