I agree with this. If there was a strong case for many desktop users
needing to manually tweak power profiles, then the right place for this
functionality would be in the control-center power panel. But I don't
think we've seen a good case for this.
I like the idea of Cockpit on Workstation. It supplies functionality
not already provided, and where it overlaps with Disks and System
Monitor, the Cockpit UI is better overall. The addition of power
management tuning substantially improves what's been a rather weak
area for Fedora, in particular on laptops.
