What I Found
I moved to a smaller laptop because most of my heavy work now happens on my Mac Studio at home.
There is a point where buying the biggest laptop starts to make less sense. If most of your serious work happens at a desk, a larger portable Mac can turn into something you carry around more than you actually need.
The short answer is that a smaller laptop can make a lot of sense if your laptop is no longer your main workstation. In my case, the Mac Studio is doing more of the heavy lifting at home, so I did not need to spend extra money or carry extra size just for the occasional mobile setup.
