Yes its an interesting gambit. This puts it at very competitive price point and could pick up a lot of buyers.
It has the same CPU but less RAM and GPU cores. I guess they're assuming they can lower the frame buffer size, shade less pixels, and save ram (and maybe even disk?) by never loading the highest resolution mip level.
