I'm not even that tech illiterate, but I almost did that... My laptop was being slow, and I still had like 4k€ in overtime hours that I could buy Hardware from at work (it's a great deal because I neither have to pay VAT on the hardware nor income taxes on the money from the overtime), so I was like, eh, might as well get a new laptop.

So then I read up on what laptop brands are out there, found out about Framework, and when I excitedly told my electrical engineer husband about it he was like "You knooow that you can easily replace parts in any laptop, right?"
Well, I didn't know that (just kinda assumed laptops were more like phones than they are like desktop PCs), so I ended up just ordering a new SSD and new RAM for my laptop. It's back to being butter smooth, but I have a hunch that cleaning the dust from the fans while I was in there was a very large factor in that haha
Wow that's an amazing amount of dust. I think that's the most I have seen in a computer and my only source of laptop used to be old things from recycling centers
Could be explained by the fact that my favorite position to program is on my bed, like a teenage girl from a mediocre 2000's movie writing in her diary. The laptop fans get a taste of all that good good bed sheet fiber.

I use mine on a sofa (for gaming, even!), but I get around the issue a bit by having a pad under the laptop. It's literally just a hard plastic board with a beanbag attached underneath, I think I got it from IKEA. It isolates the laptop a bit from dust and improves airflow + lets it heat up without burning my knees + the one I have is just large enough that I can also use my wireless mouse on it when I push my laptop to the left.
