TDP drop instead of FPS boost when lowering resolutions - 2080 Max Q

Been troubleshooting this for a while. I have a Razer 9750h 2080. Often times I game on battery as I have no available outlet, or I am at work and in my work vehicle. I understand the speed difference between adapter and battery, that's not my point. I briefly owned a Stealth with 1650. When a game running at 1080p was a bit slow, dropping the resolution from 1080p to 720p would produce a massive frame rate boost. Makes sense, dropping that resolution literally cuts the image being rendered by half. I preferred speed and lack of jitteriness to sharpness. Cut to the 2080 Max q. The exact opposite happens. When I am on battery, I drop the frame rate from 1080p to 720p. Rather than the frame rate increasing, instead the system does something interesting. It drops the power usage of the system so the laptop runs at the EXACT frame rate. For instance, I'm averaging 35-42fps on Sekiro, 1080p, medium settings, battery mode. If I drop the resolution to 720p, you'd expect at least a solid 60
