battery life for Linux is not some grand project, it's just support and setup of existing kernel drivers, typically at the distro level - which is why it's already there for some setups

he mentioned good numbers before, but of course you may want to wait for reviews
This is essentially why I'm confused. All he's doing is setting up pre-existing drivers, any chimp with access to ChatGPT can do that.
I don't see that he's bringing anything noteworthy to the table, but I've repeatedly heard people talk as though he's going to bring better battery life to Linux through omarchy.
merit doesn't matter
people want to get laptops that work well and have good battery life, whether this was easy or hard to achieve means naught
