The high power draw didn't turn out to be that much of an obstacle in the end. A strong enough step down regulator with a USB-C decoy board and it runs fine off any decent battery.
I was sceptical at first too, but in the end the Pi 4 now feels like the Pi 3B+ felt against the Pi 4 (and that was just a 30% perf boost, this is 3x). I.e. just hopelessly slow in comparison, and the few I've got will be relegated only to the least demanding projects. The Pi 5 is now the standard Pi.
