Interesting point about the KVM. To make it transparent the KVM would need to report the model of a real monitor in the display EDID data. Also if you’re monitoring the device, which is almost certainly a laptop, it would be suspicious if it was plugged in to a monitor 100% of the time.
Having a laptop permanently in a dock is pretty normal for tech workers.
Mine is either connected to a USBC dock at home or the office. I have only used it without when at a hotel.
Sure, I use a ThunderBolt dock at home, but being docked 100% of the time is probably not normal.
Mine has been docked for months at a time. I recently started shifting it to be near the kids when they're home; but not undocking it wouldn't strike me as strange at all.
That’s fair!
