I've switched out the ThinkPad for a T480, which has *no* DisplayPort
connector but brings back HDMI (lower resolution with the Dell
monitor) and forces me to spend seventy bucks on a new cable (USB-C to
DisplayPort).

After the screen blanks, the monitor refuses to wake up. Sometimes,
corrupt images (very gradually) appear in bands. When the monitor is
asleep, Fedora thinks it's still there and leaves open windows on it,
completely inaccessible. Powering it off and on does nothing, and it
needs to be unplugged/reconnected.

Am I missing a BIOS setting? (There were many that needed to be set
initially.) Is this a driver problem or should I file a bug? Happens
on Xorg and Wayland.
