USB-c Power Delivery does not require an intel CPU, so I don't see a problem.

I think he was referring to the absurd amount of power some Intel CPUs require.

My SO has an AMD gaming laptop that came with a 135W power supply. Surprised the heck out of me as I typically see Lenovo/Apple laptops with 45W or 65W power supplies. Doesn't seem to be an Intel-only thing.

Then other power-hungry device categories will become the beneficiaries of this. External GPUs with a high power draw, for instance.

don't external GPUs have their own power?

Currently they do. They wouldn't need it if such a high-power connection became the norm.
