This is good to see, but I don't think builders need to do the math on CPUs as much as they do on RAM and GPUs. Intel has no control that I can see over RAM, and only control their tiny corner that is the Arc market as far as GPUs go. The costs in those two places will likely be a more significant part of the math.
The math(s) is going to be the insane tdp it will inevitably have in laptops
