That just sounds like a desktop with extra steps.

A desktop which you can take with you if needed.

With a docking station it’s not problem at all.

So a couple hundred dollars extra. For functionality that has existed since forever.

Except that you can take the laptop with you when you leave your desk.

Obviously there's a tradeoff, but the point is you can get many of the advantages of both fairly easily.
