To cut right to the chase, my personal, biased opinion is that the 2015 15" MacBook Pro is overall a better machine than the 2019 16", for a developer, when cost is an issue.
Luckily, I own both the 2015 15" and the 2019 16", and I use them on an almost-daily basis, so I am in a position to compare them from the point of view of a developer. This new laptop flagship represents a coy admission of past failure and an attempt at redemption.
In 2019, Apple redeemed itself in the eyes of many developers, by releasing a new, much improved 16" model. From there, things went downhill, and the MacBook Pro suffered several iterations of poor design, most notably the infamous fragile keyboard, but also the lack of ports and controversial Touch Bar. In many aspects, the 2015 generation was considered Apple's pinnacle of laptop design.
If you're a Mac user, and especially a developer or IT professional, it's highly likely you hold the 2015 MacBook Pro in high regard.
