Well those Intel CPUs used to thermal throttle anyway in their outlandishly inadequate cooling designs so they did not need to throttle power either way. Now they could throttle power but don’t have to

And it’s really responsive even on battery. It’s actually a little bad because I can have too many windows open and can’t find anything.
MacOS doesn’t throttle performance on battery like many Windows power plans do, that’s why
Well it can when it needs to. It just doesn’t need to much
MacOS doesn’t need to throttle performance because ARM and other RISC architectures are naturally very power efficient
They didn’t do it on x86 either I believe.
