Not everyone can afford or has the space to have both, and portability becomes the key factor. Easy to grab this laptop as desktop throw it in a bag and go. Can't really do that with a desktop.

If you can afford a gaming laptop, you can afford a 100 dollar monitor

1080p 22" monitors are $5 at a thrift store.

I seriously can't afford one tho, I mean I can but it has to be the same image quality or better than my laptop screen and a decent'ish monitor is quite expensive where I live (120$ or more)
