And it’s really responsive even on battery. It’s actually a little bad because I can have too many windows open and can’t find anything.

MacOS doesn’t throttle performance on battery like many Windows power plans do, that’s why

MacOS doesn’t need to throttle performance because ARM and other RISC architectures are naturally very power efficient

Maybe you can buy a USB-C Wifi interface that’s small enough. Assuming there’s something like that.
