Because I work in multiple stationary locations. Even during pandemic.

If I really wanted to work on desktop I'd need to buy a car and bother with transporting it few times a week, or I'd need to buy multiple desktops and move only external SSD.

And in that case it would be a luxury, but I'd still want a laptop for occasional work and entertainment from couch.

Or you could have a powerful desktop machine and SSH/RDP into it from a less powerful laptop.

Latency from multiple locations would be a problem, also would need to expose it to the internet, and static IP is a problem. I'm sure there are solutions to this tho, but not worth it IMO.
