I have no experience with the rest but the saw's only 6.5 inches and the batteries only 3.0Ah.
I don't understand TTI's market segmentation; these brushed tools should be Ryobi's domain (and Ryobi's Whisper fan should be Milwaukee's...). Why pay the Milwaukee tax for brushed?

And you're right, you don't understand TTI's marketing. It's not Ryobi's brushed vs Milwaukee brushless. Both brands have different lines of tools. Milwaukee still needs their older, cheaper tools to create an attractive entry point for new buyers without cannibalizing their high-end sales.
And whatever you're calling "Milwaukee tax" includes higher quality, reliability, more power, extra two years of warranty, higher resale values and a more enjoyable experience while using the tools.
Personally I wouldn't get this set because the impact driver doesn't have a power selector, but not because it's brushed.

Have you seen the Ryobi prices on their brushelss tools which are still outperformed by these Milwaukee brushed tools?
I own a ton of Ryobi as well btw, so I'm no tool snob, but I'm also not delusional.

For any suckers that value brand name more than actual value.

Last I checked brushed tools have a more limited lifespan than brushless and eventually require replacing after 50-60 hrs of use. The non fuel 6.5 in circular saw also has decent number of bad reviews. The impact driver is also limited like you mentioned. The light is weak, and the batteries at 3.0 are not going to last long without being chsrged. I would say $400 is a little high for subpar tools, you can easily get a better brushless set from Ryobi or even just spend a little more for brushless or fuel. There's plenty of hacks and free batteries with fuel that this deal is not worth it if you plan on using and keeping these tools for 10+ years.
That being said, I own many brushed power tools that are at least 10 years old and are still going strong.
