>And what does Chromebook offers?
A Google-curated, hassle-free computing experience. Those that don't want one can always, I dunno, not buy it.

No, I mean that if you're pinching pennies, you can always buy something else, even if you'd really like a Chromebook.
A Pixelbook is for those wanting such an experience, AND being able to afford one (And of course there are much cheaper Chromebooks out there).
If you don't like yourself a Chromebook, on the other hand, why are you even discussing this?
