You missing one big feature on the ultra-thin Asus TUF Dash 15, Thunderbolt 4 - thats a huge advantage over regular Type-C and should be reflected in the comparison. Also integrated NIC (though in this comparison both have one) should be considered, as plugging in will always be faster for gaming as wifi introduced latency even if it can move chuncks of data faster, the latency is what is a disadvantage in gaming.
