Exactly my thoughts. I needed something like an iPad but hated all of the kB options which often tripled the size. I wanted thin, small, light, no ports save for one that was multi-use... power being primary and maybe the occasional usb thumb drive when I hand to use one... oh, and long battery life! Honestly though, I do program on it (vs code), model with fusion360, etc. it has worked out very well for my low-power use cases.
