No heating element visible in ICE Macan - different tech to Ford / Volvo - rather there is a film in the glass which heats. My wife has it on her car.Although I personally wouldn't order a few items on your list and have minor disagreement on a couple of nice-to-have vs must have and vice versa, I basically agree with your take on everything shown depending on the personal needs/wants of the buyer.
I will mention just a couple of things. Unless things have changed with the design of the heated front window, I've read that the tiny wires in the windscreen are visible and can be annoying in some situations. I suppose if one lived where windows iced over regularly it could be a desirable option and worth any potential downside.
Also, although it's true that 21" wheels will impact range, if one orders 20's instead of no cost 21's (on the Turbo) you also get narrower wheels and tires; 7.5F/10R vs 8.5F/10.5R and 235/55F 285/45R vs 245/45F 295/40R. I'd choose the beefier rubber even though range is impacted. The 21's on my Taycan have not caused any concerns in that area. Just my $.02.
