I think this speak to market demand? There's just not a lot of use of this thing.
I've thought about using an iPad as dev machine (obviously it's not linux, but ssh+termux is basically the same) because of the form factor and battery life. But M1 chip solved that problem to me.
I just don't see why you want to run linux on a tablet, what else other than the command line draw you to linux? It's certainly not windows X. Tablets are just not very friendly to interact when the subject is a terminal.
