Good point about not hitting limits individually.
I think microsoft has a huge problem with this. Even 3000$ laptops from 5 years ago struggle with running a teams call, some office instances and a browser with 30 tabs at the same time without slowing down to unacceptable levels.
They test stuff individually and running one thing alone is fine, but that's not what people do.
I'd imagine that artificial limits in the form of run time on well-defined hardware that are only raised after an explicit decision could be the solution to this.
But then again I only write business software where the performance aspect comes down to "don't do stupid shit with the database and don't worry about the rest because the client won't pay for those worries", so I might be on the wrong track entirely.
