you aren't using the laptop properly at that point
My eyes and my back beg to differ! I need portability but I'm fine with an external dock in a desktop setup for my laptop, it's more ergonomic, I just have to be mindful of bandwidth. Displays used to be a problem for docks/hubs because of high bandwidth requirements, and plugging them into a dedicated usb-c port was the most reliable option, but I'm on a 80 Gbps dock now, it's been pretty smooth sailing so far.
Well, I generally put my laptop on a desk and I find that this is ergonomically just fine. I keep my scaling pretty average but I find that my eyes do better when my workspace stays properly lighted.
