>Single core M4 takes the M1 Max to the woodshed.

literally doesn't matter. Your not going to notice a difference on tasks that only require single core. what matters is a m1 max having way higher GPU performance and dual encoders. The memory bandwidth is also way fucking faster.

anything meaningful is significantly better on a m1 max. gaming, video editing, local AI.

the battery life of a m4 is a bigger downside.
