Thanks Kevin. I've closed the feedback report as I don't have any new information to share, but I have to say I'm disappointed in the outcome. I don't think this answer actually holds up. Here is how I understand it: I plug in a monitor. Its default resolution is 4k at 240Hz. Fine, I shouldn't be able to plug in another monitor. I change the one monitor to 4K at 120Hz. Now the laptop has one monitor plugged in, running at 4K at 120Hz. I plug in another monitor. Its default resolution is 4k at 240Hz. I understand this is a problem because it would require both of the two display 'pipes' as you described above. But why should this be my problem to deal with as the customer? I have no qualms running the second monitor at 4K 120Hz, same as the first monitor. Why isn't the MacBook Pro M5 dropping this second monitor to 4K 120Hz? It's a resolution and refresh rate that's fully supported by the monitor. Alternately, why can't I set up a display profile that's unique to the monitor, at the supported 4k 120Hz
