It may depend on the coffee shop. There is a local cafe near me that gets customers, but I've never really seen it full. I'm sure they would love to have a crowd of people hanging out buying drinks, but also making it appear more popular and a nice place to hang out. I've been to cafes before that were silent and just awkward to be in because it was just me, my friend, and the barista.

Heh, I was going to say, the other day I was able to use my M1 Pro laptop for nearly 8 hours and it still had around 30% battery remaining.

The people who try to order a single black coffee and plop down for 8 hours (the aforementioned "laptop hobos") are almost assuredly going to be using an older laptop with a beat up battery.
People who can afford a latest gen MacBook with great battery life are also the people who can afford fancier drinks every couple hours.
