Data from /sys/class/thermal are usually stale. They are left from previous platforms. The actual limits comes from adaptive tables based on the condition match. This is what OEM defined for the system.
Also without adaptive power limits are insane here.

Thermal doesn't reduce GPU frequency. It only reduced total power. How power is distributed between CPU and GPU is beyond thermald control.

If someone don't want adaptive, they can always not use it. But adaptive is important as this is keeping the system under thermal limits as defined and for the life of the system.
