I’m always surprised at the people who like the wedge. I was never a fan. That’s not a bad idea, but Apple generally drops older designs to simplify manufacturing, i.e. The wedge probably won’t sell enough to justify its existence once the M3 is released When they can sell the newer design at a lesser price.
Actually Apple likes to reuse previous designs in other lines (iPhone SE using the 5s and now 8 design, Apple Watch SE I think using the AW3 and now AW5 design) and even keeping the 13" MBP design around for so long... so I think it is natural they may do the same with the iconic MBA design to create a MacBook SE line.

it is the best price we've ever tracked on the model to date
I paid $999 back in December, so not really that new.
