They are showing off that their laptop unfolds flat, but what is the use case for that?

  When you're using the laptop's keyboard but a larger external monitor in front of you. Thinkpads have had this ability for as long as I can remember.

    I hadn't ever considered that. I'm also not sure I want my desk cat walking across the flattened screen.

      Having used Thinkpads exclusively for decades, I had no idea it was a unique feature and nearly broke the hinge on my ex's Macbook Air when she was sitting across from me and wanted me too see something on her screen. I reached across the table and grabbed the top of her screen pulling it down to horizontal while I leaned over to look down on it while she exclaimed "stop! you're breaking it!" as her keyboard elevated her hands... Fortunately I had my Thinkpad in front of me and immediately demonstrated I wasn't completely insane for expecting it to be fine.
