Thanks for the correct albeit clickbait title, now let's see the power usage, performance per watt etc.

Hint: M2 destroys the competition

Do general consumers care about wattage being used on a desktop? I don't think many consider it at all, they just want the performance. It matters on a mobile device like a laptop, tablet or phone, but that's about where consumers stop caring.
Depends on the use case. I personally undervolt my AMD 7950X in my gaming PC to use less power and thus generate less heat and fan noise. It makes a big difference.
Getting quieter fans on a better cooler might make a bigger difference.
