I have the feeling that the all-aluminum body on the MacBooks

EM radiation will leak through any gaps you have in that metal, and leak out any cables you have plugged into the machine that aren't also caged. For example: the power cable, USB cables, display cable, etc.

So this can't be the reason.

Why would you make a laptop out of a lightweight thermally conductive material?

They should have never changed from the TiBook. bezels have only gotten bigger from then on.

Certain sized holes in the case will also act as slot antennas at certain frequencies.

It doesn't really matter, exposed metal parts are grounded. There's metal toasters, you know.

Also the aluminium oxide that forms on the outside surface isn't very conductive. Pretty sure most of these devices are anodized so the layer would even be extra thick.

Btw the magnesium alloy most laptops, phones and other devices are made of is electrically conductive too.

Doesn't that just mean that a charge on the outside cannot reach the inside and visa versa?

I'd be more worried about dents, alu doesn't bend back

It's very durable. My 7 year old macbook pro looks almost brand new if I can be bothered to clean it. All my other laptops look like shit (I have two dells, an asus, old sony vaio.and acer).

Possibly because that makes the whole laptop a fucking heatsink
