      MacOS doesn’t throttle performance on battery like many Windows power plans do, that’s why

            Well those Intel CPUs used to thermal throttle anyway in their outlandishly inadequate cooling designs so they did not need to throttle power either way. Now they could throttle power but don’t have to
