>> why should there be battery-less portable Workstations
Actually I think the battery in my laptop mostly functions as a UPS, and is rarely used on my lap. I have a home office and used to visit other offices a lot, and the main use case for me is being able to quickly fold my workstation into a bag and take it anywhere. But I plug it in when I get there, and unless I want to code on a plane or a train (I rarely do), it's just a portable workstation.

That's what most people don't understand regarding high spec laptops. Then they will start talking about remote streaming... desktop + cheap laptop = 18-wheeler + bicycle.
