On the other hand, I agree - OEMs are just barely starting to warm up to AMD (so "Macbook-like" laptops are rare, the Huawei Matebook is a blatant copy, but it's not the original) and the M1 is more power efficient, enabling amazing battery life in laptops. I didn't contest that idea. I just think there's a classic reality distortion field happening when comparing the Apple Silicon M1 to "all other CPUs" that, for many, veers rather far from the truth.
