Well, they usually ship unlocked CPUs, where other vendors often power-throttle the CPU.
I am not a "fan" of the fan noise, so I checked and the EC firmware was open source. It was possible to raise the fan tipping point to run the laptop hotter and more silent.
People have also tried to set the power clamping later. That works and is equivalent to limit it in the BIOS.
Key point is: this does not mean you have to run it that way. Add a power profile, l configure the fan curve, enjoy.
