Alternatively, people who want windows decide to order the Linux config, and use the $280 they saved to buy an OEM windows license elsewhere (or like, just pirate it)

Yeah if you're buying a framework you're probably a tech geek and know how to make a USB boot drive and find activator scripts.

Or use their visual studio subscription ( previously named msdn ) to get a key

I can't imagine the type of user that would want that laptop and also wants Windows.

Feel like I’m missing something obvious here — do laptops just not do discrete GPUs anymore? Are they just no longer necessary?

The Framework 16 has a replaceable dGPU solution.
