What is so difficult about allowing that screen to be powered by another computer? Apple is really crazy, because I know that screen costs a fortune.

When that Mac was first released, there was literally no external connection that would let you drive that display.

HDMI and DP at the time didn't have enough bandwidth to support 5k60.
