I would imagine that CPUs are much more efficient than a satellite transmitter, probably? I guess you'd have to balance the additional computational energy required vs. the savings in energy from less transmitting.

Yeah, it all depends very much, given how huge the "embedded/IoT" spectrum is. Each use case has its own unique constraints, which makes it very hard to give general advice.
