Without addressing the implied question of market validation and user research, there are lots of reasons why power users of such hardware would want something more powerful than an Android platform that is really only usable for installing things from an app store.

I think the point is more "why not install a more optimized distro than Ubuntu". Something like Mint or Puppy would be less resource intensive but still be a Linux system.
