Battery life and responsiveness. Eg there's no alternative to the M2 Pro CPU. It's not just pareto optimal, but at the top of the leaderboard in both metrics

btw price grows exponentially with single threaded performance, which in turn determines responsiveness. Your link shows that the M2 Pro is much more performant even compared to your desktop. 2689 vs 2023 is a huge gap: https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-amd_ryzen_7_7735hs...
I agree M2 is better, but not at 4x the price for 1
My responsiveness is great, and Linux experience for my UC (dev) is much better.
