Because they don’t always exist.

I have a home hub (got it on sale a while back) and I agree that it feels like it should be a small detachable tablet. This looks like the natural next evolution.

I’ve had a few android tablets. They’ve all been lackluster and unimpressive. This one, at least seems like it would serve a general purpose (home hub) with the added benefit of being able to detach it and use it as a tablet when needed.

Agreed. Many on this list, to me, seem too busy or an outright eyesore (btop). But bat does appear truly useful. I’ll be giving that one a try.
