I am still using the first ever retina MBP 15" from mid-2012. Battery is no longer reliable. Screen ghosting. Load LR and PS also a bit laggy.

Was thinking to change to iMac as I dont travel frequently anymore, then again the current iMac design is way way outdated, while the new MBP 16" has a lot more features than the iMac. Hand itchy wanna upgrade to MBP 16" now...

I just upgraded from 13 inch 2013. I have a 27 inch monitor with wireless keyboard and trackpad that can hook up to my MB at home. Used that setup since I sold off my iMac many years ago. I would say if you are the only one using the laptop/computer, that would be a good setup. But if you have wife, kids or anyone else that will use the iMac at home, probably better to have iMac as a base computer at home that can be connected to everything. Can use for streaming, home automation, CCTV, backing up files etc. How about a mac mini?

yeah i will be using it myself. same as you i already have an external keyboard and trackpad as well as an elevated laptop stand to increase my ergonomics (I have neck pain issues). Will probably get a 27 inch monitor as well. Any recommendation for the monitor?
