There is an option to take the MacBook Pro 16 "2019 , but there are fears that after switching to ARM, computers with Intel chips will not be supported for a long time. Does it make sense to wait for the release of a new poppy?

They will not support computers with Intel chips for a long time.

long for you is how much? Most likely, as much as he is morally modern (that is, 3 years) will be supported. And then it will be possible to install Windows or Linux there for sure, and continue to use one fig as a computer.

I took an MBP16 and I don't like it at all. It’s worth waiting for at least the 10th generation Intel update, the iGPU integration does not pull out the interface animation, it constantly freezes something ... If it switches to a discrete one, everything flies, but the MacBook heats up more and the surface around the touchbar is constantly hot, not comfortable ...

The transition to ARM will not be as fast as you imagine ... It will definitely take 5-6 years. Read about the transition from previous processors to Intel. There won't be much difference in the process. Definitely not worth the wait

The question is, for what purposes will you use the laptop.
If, for example, for development, and it involves the use of tools such as docker, then in principle it will not work on an arm chip
