And laptops have built-in UPS and travel more easily to the shed and back. But for sure, horses for courses, as always. One for the gamers, one for the tinkerers.

However, as for desktops having greater and cheaper storage... yes. However keeping data redudantly stored suggests that the bulk of your storage should not be in one single place, be it your desktop or laptop. Being stuck at home means that such networked storage will be accessible to a laptop of modest internal storage capacity conveniently enough for many tasks.
