Kinda weird that it has such similar specs, I would've expected they'd want to do something more differentiated

The size lets them use the specs to their full potential which differentiates it in terms of performance

Is this due to heat build-up / airflow?

Yes but not by a ton. It's also a similar price bracket. It's just weirdly close.
