Since the Mac mini maxes out with a M2 Pro chip, and that’s well within the power footprint of a 96W output from the Apple studio display, I was wondering if we could ever see a Mac mini that could run entirely off of the Thunderbolt/usb-c connection instead of needing a separate power cord. I am thinking of VESA mounting a studio display to my wall and it would be nice to have the Mac mini stashed behind the display and just be powered off of that port so I can avoid having a second wire hanging down.
Is such an idea feasible?

I know we can already operate a 14” MBP entirely off of the studio display’s power output, don’t think a Mac mini would be a stretch?
