Another laptop resolution troll.
The screen only 15.6 inches. Which means 141 PPI.
That's higher pixel density than a 27 inch 1440p monitor (108 PPI).
It's also higher pixel density than a 32 inch 4K monitor (137 PPI).
The extra pixels of a higher resolution screen would be significantly harder to drive for little benefit in this small form factor.

Will it drive a 1440p, 144hz, or more monitor if that's what's desired, I'm not sure.

The 4070 isn't capable of playing some modern games at QHD with high settings, as it only has 8GB VRAM. Nvidia has been using 8GB VRAM on their x070 cards since 2016, and it's just not enough anymore.
As an example, a mobile RTX 4070 can't even hit an average of 20FPS for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Other GPUs that are generally regarded to be slower than the 4070 that have more VRAM run the game much faster.
If you're going to buy an 8GB GPU and you intend to play the latest video games, you may well be better off with a 1080p screen.
