I bought this a couple weeks ago. I'm happy with the build quality, aesthetics and performance

Bought and returned it. Nice laptop with Thunderbolt, nice screen, etc.

Two major drawbacks:
1) 4c 8t CPU? nope....
2) The 3070 has lower wattage compared to a friend's Zephyrus 15 3070 which has 100w

Correct - the only differentiator now is TDP, which manufacturers often aren't disclosing. Still, lots of folks still call the low-power variants "Max-Q" and the high-power variants "Max-P" for simplicity's sake.

i7-11370H is the modern 11th gen 10nm Tiger Lake high power laptop CPU. Only 4/8 but pretty good for gaming.

Did I suffer a stroke and miss the release of the 11th gen intel? Could have sworn 10th gen was just release within the past 6 months.

because nvidia decided to start hiding the TDP from consumers, vs at least giving them an indicator what TDP range it was. they still exist exactly as before the difference is now you don't get to know what you get unless you do in-depth research on it.
