Why not give NUC X15 an iGPU Only mode?

[Joker5017]

It is a pity that the NUC X15 does not have a dGPU direct connection, but as a studio laptop, why not design an iGPU Only mode for low-performance, low-power scenarios such as office and entertainment?

The dGPU can be disabled by setting relevant options in the BIOS or the Intel®NUC Software Studio and using only the Integrated graphics. In this way, resources can be saved more effectively in daily use. When the dGPU needs to work, it can be switched with a button and restart.
