The Oxford comma is bad. The "and" conveys the end of the list just fine.
Gaming laptops are good and have been for decades.
Soup is not food. If you spill your drink over my plate of pasta I call that a ruined plate of pasta.
Speaking of commas & "and", I hate that people refuse to use the word "and" in news headlines, they replace it with commas instead and it's just a worse reading experience, I really don't understand why this is a thing.
At a guess: holdover in style from newspapers, where you needed the space.
That seems plausible, wish they'd get with the times!
