I'm upgrading to a new laptop (unfortunately, a desktop is not viable for me right now). It's a VR gaming machine, with some potential work with machine learning (me learning about it). I've got a system option, but it's into price flinching territory, and wanted a once over, from those more in the know.
Are there any obvious flaws in it, and is it reasonable for the price?

It prices up at €2,809.31 (£2,484.57 or $3,130.80) including shipping and taxes.
It's worth noting the system comes with an optional external water cooling system, so the CPU and GFX are less thermally limit, when it's plugged in. It also has a proper keyboard, not the normal membrane ones.
What are people's opinions? It is a reasonable price, or am I way too far up the diminishing returns slope?

devil's advocate, it does have some logic to it.
An ambiguous report of an unconscious person could be the result of a crime/attack. Having the police turn up quickly helps with that significantly.
As others have said, the police could have been faster to respond.
Some people, when coming out of a fit, etc, can be aggressive. E.g. A friend is, apparently a "puncher" when she comes out of a general anaesthetic. She makes it a point to warn the nursing team, when possible. She's still given out a few black eyes. Having police respond makes sense. They are, supposedly, trained in safe handling of an aggressive person. This makes them ideal for containing someone till their brain reboots, and stops panicking.
Unfortunately, it sounds like the officers here forgot their duties and training. I'm often horrified to hear how american police tend to operate. It's the sort of thing you don't see much of in most developed countries.
