Has the Lenovo warranty really gotten worse? The author doesn't specify but speaks of the "incredible" warranty on the Thinkpads in the past tense. I purchased an X220 in 2011 with the 3 year next business day warranty plan and it was awesome the couple of times I had to use it. I recently purchased an X13 to replace it with the same warranty plan, assuming it would still be as good. Not true?
(By the way, Kubuntu installed and ran almost without issues on this 2021 X13 out of the box. Only minor issue was with sleep / suspend but that ended up being a BIOS setting. Apparently there is a "Windows" and a "Linux" sleep state.)

IIRC, Linux uses an actual S3 suspend, where NT has moved to a low-power mode that never actually halts the processor - "always on sleep" or something?
