I use it in a workstation setting. Two workstation settings in fact. I dock at home into a dual monitor setup. I go to work and dock into a dual monitor setup. I keep my MacBook open, not closed. Pretty much all my coworkers do the same. All with Apple silicon MacBook pros. No idea what you’re talking about. I believe you — I just think you need to do a deeper dive into your kit instead of assuming the rest of the world must be wrong about these machines.
