If that goes down by a significant percentage, productivity goes up by a significant amount. For drawing, good acceleration is the difference between a distracting experience that's laggy and unusable, and a smooth experience that gets out of the way of the work. Besides, there are people with an interest in art and machine learning. Good luck with a 980M if that's your area of interest.
