Sure. I'm making the argument that 2k for a laptop form factor is outlandish, not that there aren't products as bizarre as 'gaming laptops' that perhaps cost even more.
I have yet to see a mass market use-case for a powerful laptop. Who are these people that need to regularly go from place to place and need to do compute-intensive work in those various places?
I've been given laptops at work - everyone would've been better off with a mac mini 100% of the time (assuming you can upgrade those?) - the only people who don't connect their laptop to a big monitor anyway are people asking for neck and shoulder problems within a decade.
