I am practicing that strategy now. I recently upgraded to an iPad Pro M5 (the day price increases were announced, jumped on a deal immediately), upgraded several shortcuts with Apple Intelligence, and am refining them to run entirely on-device instead of in PCC (not using ChatGPT at all).
Just a note that PCC is different from the ChatGPT integration. You might be using PCC resources without noticing, because the iPad won’t tell you in advance. Only way to be sure is to disconnect from the Internet and/or check your Apple Intelligence Report (in System Settings > Privacy) after the fact

I’m referring to my Shortcuts where I can specify on-device or cloud (PCC).
You can’t. iPadOS decides for you whether a request is run locally or in the cloud.
I’m waiting for the next generation of Mac Mini and Mac Studio.
