I watched the video and now I'm more confused (than usual).

High-expandability computers require a 600 Watt power supply? Is the Raspberry Pi 40-pin GPIO included?

GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) Definition
https://techterms.com/definition/gpio
GPIO Stands for "General Purpose Input/Output." GPIO is a type of pin found on an integrated circuit that does not have a specific function. While most pins have a dedicated purpose, such as sending a signal to a certain component, the function of a GPIO pin is customizable and can be controlled by software.
It has two 5V pins.

5v Power at Raspberry Pi GPIO Pinout

Physical/Board pin 2 The 5v power pins are connected directly to the Pi's power input and will capably provide the full current of your mains adaptor, less that used by the Pi itself. With a decent power supply, such as the official 3A adapter on the Pi 4, you can expect to pull about 1A to 2A.
Offtopic, sosume:



Actually, since it's mostly about shut-down/restart controlled by the car's key, maybe it is.
