> only lose at power consumption

Not even that. The J4125 box I have runs circles around my Pi4, was only 40€, and has a lower power consumptions (though at those levels the difference is mostly meaningless) The size is a huge difference, but as they are both in the living room cupboard (the Pi4 now runs Proxmox Backup Server), that doesn’t really make a difference for my case.

There's a reason I said the pi only won power consumption unreliably:) It's very dependent on workload (pi idles low, but under load that doesn't go as well) and the exact competition (x86 includes boards that happily run <10W, and also machines that idle in the tens of Watts:]).
