Razer 14" - Buying Decision


I currently own a 2018 (or 2019, I forget) Razer Blade 15" Its a solid laptop, very happy with it, but I'll be traveling this summer and I wonder if the 14" model is worth the rather high price.

I've been devouring Yts, reviews and information and everything I've read appears to be overwhelmingly positive.

Usage: Playing games, nothing crazy, some old games, some current games - I'm a huge Fallout 76 fan, and some new games. I've been wanting try out Elden Ring. I'll also be using it for work stuff, nothing heavy, VPN, remote access to servers, office, database and web stuff.

I have a handful of questions.
1. Has anyone moved from a 15" to a 14"? Do you feel its a step back, or is the 14" fine?
2. Battery life, while I'll not be game playing on a flight, I still don't expect a lot of hours from my 15" nor will it fit as well as the 14" How are people's real world experience.
3. Portability, anyone notice a distinct difference how much easier it is?
4. Quality. when ever I research Razer, QC is always something some folks complain. I've had REALLY good luck with the 15" I'm hoping that's not an outlier experience
5. Worth spending 250 to 370 extended warrenty? This puppy is expensive enough as it is.
6. Worth going for the 2021 version on Amazon? The 6900Hx appears to be even better with power usage, so I'm thinking that is the way to go. So far I seem to only get it through Razer.

Sorry for so many questions, but overall I'm looking at people's opinions and experiences with the 14" Particularly from those who went from the 15" to the 14"
