It’s because as soon as you plug in an external monitor, the dedicated GPU is used for the output and is responsible for the added heat

That part isn't a bug, though. It needs the dedicated GPU to push all those pixels, the native screen is already pretty dense.

There was a bug where something would infinite loop on a non-standard resolution, think that was fixed.
