Your post is nonsense. I was talking about the Apple Silicon chips. Which combine all the logic on one chip. That means, they are limited in the capacities by what is put on that corresponding chip. Apple chose to put 2 display outputs on the smaller chips, and more on the larger ones. That is a conscious choice trading off chip area with other capabilities. Could they have done differently? Sure. Does it make sense? Yes. For the people, who need or want more compute power and more capabilities, they have two different chip offerings in the laptops, the Pro and the Max. And in the Mac Studio the Ultra, which are two Max and consequently raise the IO capability even further.

And I have certainly not talked about any other platform, which usually uses multi-chip approaches.
