This is my recurring gripe with these "mini computers":

Power cable? Not included.

SSD adapter? Not included.

Needs a mini HDMI to HDMI cable.

Needs a cooling case (absolutely required for Pi 5).

It feels a bit like Tesla’s "gas savings" pricing deception. The Pi looks cheap on paper, but the actual usable cost is buried under "essential extras" [1].
