So thererCOs some controversy over this rCLLow Latency ProfilerCY feature
that Microsoft is working on for Windows 11. Some see it as a fudge to
try to make Windows performance look better, at the expense of using
more battery life.
Microsoft is pushing back, in part by saying that other OSes already
do the same sort of thing.
Which, of course, begs the question of why Microsoft was so slow to
recognize the value of the idea in the first place ...

Maybe they were trying to conserve battery life and realized the cost was too high? Don't really know.
