A question of sense: The Lenovo ThinkPad P14s G3 AMD is pretty redundant

Lenovo sell the ThinkPad P14s Gen 3 AMD as a mobile workstation - yet it is missing many workstation features. This makes it barely any different to the ThinkPad T14 Gen 3. Lenovo should really have a think about which features make the P14s Gen 3 unique.
