Was it?
stores have increasingly reported high return rates of snapdragon based laptops reletive to their x86 counterparts.
even Amazon slapped a returned frequently tag on the surface laptop 7 at one point.
Can you show me a Snapdragon X device with 3,000+ ST on Geekbench 6? These were their initially marketed benchmarks (that was later revealed to be a custom Linux solution running on an internal device that's not available to the public).
There was also a lot of news about relatively low shipment share and, as others have mentioned, high return rates.
