> Imagine. Your macOS suddenly decudes that you don't need a web server running on your macbook, so it randomly kills it to free resources for your browser. Would you be happy with this level of care shown by the manufacturer?

Your macOS has an unacceptable battery life already despite having a massive 58WHr battery - about 3.5x the size of a normal phone battery. Phone users don't want to lug that size of a battery around just to get battery life that's worse than they get right now from a 15WHr one.

Heh, not true anymore with the new M1 lineup. I was skeptical but they are insanely efficient.

Noone will buy a mobile phone with a battery life of a M1 lineup laptop. Pixel 4 got trashed on reviews for having the double battery life of those.

In terms of screen-on-time (for comparable tasks like web browsing) they are pretty close to modern phones..
