Why doesn't the Framework laptop have the Intel Evo badge?

I guess, first of all…will it make sense for the Framework Laptop to be Evo certified? And then, what will it take?

It seems that Evo has a requirement of Thunderbolt 4 certification which Framework doesn’t have yet.

There’s also the requirement of 9+ hours of real world battery life which (depending on the testing method) could be hard to reach.

Looks like we’re not quite Evo-ready-for-certification just yet then…
