Most vendors will either put an Alder Lake-U CPU in instead (a bit like the M1), or they'll use the H but configure it to run at 45W.

A select few like Razor will do a fat, noisy gaming laptop that's somewhat useful because it's a gaming PC but on the go(-ish), but you wouldn't really use it for anything else, because, y'know. Fat, noisy.

That's basically how it has worked for years — Intel gets to claim their CPUs can run very fast (while omitting the caveat), and vendors then make the choice "yeah, but we're not gonna configure it like that".
