> I seriously hate it that I can't reliably work at a coffee shop for five hours just... take your charger...

  They’re relatively heavy, take up space and there’s no guarantee there will be an outlet near your table. When connected, the laptop becomes more difficult to move or pack. It’s all doable but also slightly less convenient.

    Always found that take fascinating -- are you sitting at a sofa or those inflatable chair-like things in the coffee shop? Are you changing your body's position multiple times, like, significantly so? At least from my side, if I have to work on a laptop outside, I'll just find a good table, plug it in an outlet and, you know, work on it, with almost no changes of body position. Not to be dismissive but I genuinely don't understand what's the problem with your laptop being plugged in when working from a coffee shop.
