This CM5 is at least as powerful as laptop CPU from ten years back I'm really surprised nobody one is coming up with upgradable laptop platform or shell powered by RPi compute module. Couple with the available maximum 16 GB with ECC available with CM5 this can be a winner since laptop RAM capacity has been stagnant for around ten years now [1].

There are Pi-based laptops (Pi-Top, CrowPi), but it's very hard to compete with used laptops. And not many people like ARM-based OSes (which is usually Linux or the awful version of Windows).
