That's my point.

Some people would.

people with lots of money to waste.

Does that mean that Apple is Winning over the power users (that) generally precedes larger adoption?

Absolutely not.

Anyway: spending less for the same output is better than spending more for the same output. At least make it scale linearly.

Apple HW doesn't equal double productivity, hence double price is not a price that will appeal general population, but only **some people**

It's not a critique against Apple M1, only to the assumption that a good enough CPU will make wonders on the market.

It won't.

My job bought me whatever laptop I needed, so I got a beefed-up XPS 15 (i9, 64gb). If the M1 max could run Linux I would have bought that instead.
